Senate leader gives OK
The US Senate majority leader has formally introduced the resolution giving President Barack Obama the authority to use military force against Syria.
Harry Reid filed the measure yesterday during a brief Senate session. Lawmakers return from a five-week recess on Monday and will begin to debate the proposal for military strikes.
A vote to move ahead on the resolution is expected on Wednesday. Obama will address the country on Syria on Tuesday.
