US resolution opposes Syria withdrawal October 16, 2019 US Democrats, joined by some of Donald Trump's fellow Republicans, have introduced a resolution opposing the President's decision to withdraw US forces from Syria, the latest sign of deep disapproval in Congress of his action. "We have always maintained that, while certainly needed, a sanctions package alone is insufficient for reversing this humanitarian disaster," House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer said in a statement introducing the resolution. |
