This Monday morning, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) announced that she and Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) have agreed to a "bipartisan, bicameral joint resolution to overturn the President’s dangerous decision in Syria immediately."
"Pleased to have a conversation with Senator @LindseyGrahamSC this morning," Pelosi tweeted. "Our first order of business was to agree that we must have a bipartisan, bicameral joint resolution to overturn the President’s dangerous decision in Syria immediately."
In a series of tweets within an hour of Pelosi's tweet, Graham confirmed the announcement, writing that he will be "working across party lines in a bicameral fashion to draft sanctions and move quickly, appreciating President Trump’s willingness to work with the Congress."
"The Speaker indicated to me that time was of the essence," Graham added.
