<div dir="ltr"><div>FCNL thinks this amendment could pass the House today. A similar amendment last year got more than 180 votes. If it passes, it will be a very big deal. Most Dems will support; some Tea Party Rs will support. Whether it passes or fails largely depends on "swing" Rs like Rodney Davis.</div>

<p>Today, the House of Representatives is voting on the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). Last night, the House Rules Committee allowed a vote on the Schiff amendment repealing the 2001 Authorization for the Use of Military Force.

<p></p>
<p>Please contact your Representative <b>NOW</b>.</p>
