Rep. Justin Amash (R-Mich.), who has hosted numerous town hall meetings this week to discuss possible military intervention in Syria, has a message for his colleagues who are planning to support a military strike against the Assad regime.
From MLive:
GRAND RAPIDS, MI — Federal lawmakers who plan to vote in favor of a U.S. military strike against Syria "might as well start cleaning out" their office, U.S. Rep. Justin Amash said Thursday.
Amash, R-Cascade Township, tweeted that the "unprecedented level of public opposition" to military intervention in the country should beg for dissenting votes.
"If you're voting yes on military action in #Syria, might as well start cleaning out your office," Amash tweeted Thursday afternoon. "Unprecedented level of public opposition."
