House Debate on Iraq Resolution
On Tuesday, February 13, Wednesday, February 14 and Thursday, February 14 (6-7am), KCRWworldnews.com will air full live coverage of the debate in the House of Representatives on a resolution objecting to President Bush's proposed troop build up in Iraq. (The debate may continue on Friday, February 16, as well.) The House is expected to vote on the non-binding resolution expressing disapproval of the President's decision to deploy 20,000 additional US troops to Iraq. It's the first debate in the House on the war since Democrats won control of Congress in November. In an unusual move, every member of Congress will be allotted five minutes to speak.
