2019-03-05 | Paul, Udall introduce bill to end Afghanistan War | TheHill
'Udall echoed the sentiment, arguing that U.S. service members will soon begin deploying to Afghanistan “to fight in a war that began before they were born."'
'Additionally, the legislation would require the 2001 Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF) to be repealed at the end of the withdrawal. '
'"As we face this watershed moment, it’s past time to change our approach to the longest war in our country’s history,” he said. '
'And the bill would have the federal government pay, within one year, a $2,500 bonus to the more than 3 million military service members who have served in the war — a one-time cost of about $7 billion. '
'It would also set a “framework for political reconciliation to be implemented by Afghans."'
