Vote number 2006-288 declaring Iraq part of War on Terror with no exit date
on Jun 12, 2006 regarding bill HRES 861 Resolution on Prevailing in the Global War on Terror
Results: Resolution Passed: 256-153

    Voting YES would support the following resolution (excerpted):
  • Whereas the United States and its allies are engaged in a Global War on Terror, a long and demanding struggle against an adversary that is driven by hatred of American values and that is committed to imposing, by the use of terror, its repressive ideology throughout the world;
  • Whereas the terrorists have declared Iraq to be the central front in their war against all who oppose their ideology;
  • Whereas the United States and its Coalition partners will continue to support Iraq as part of the Global War on Terror:
    Now, therefore, be it Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
  • Honors all those Americans who have taken an active part in the Global War on Terror;
  • Declares that it is not in the national security interest of the United States to set an arbitrary date for the withdrawal or redeployment of United States Armed Forces from Iraq;
  • Declares that the United States is committed to the completion of the mission to create a sovereign, free, secure, and united Iraq;
  • Declares that the United States will prevail in the Global War on Terror, the noble struggle to protect freedom from the terrorist adversary.
