On Capitol Hill, Senator Robert Byrd has announced plans to introduce a measure to revoke the Bush administration’s authority to wage war in Iraq. Five years ago the West Virginia Democrat led the opposition in the Senate to the war. On Thursday, Senator Hillary Clinton said she would join Byrd’s effort. Clinton originally voted for the war. Meanwhile, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is reportedly considering a bill that would continue funding the war, but only guarantee the money through July. After that, Congress could block additional money if the Iraqi government does not meet certain benchmarks.
