The Senate Foreign Relations Committee voted 10-7 to approve a resolution authorizing the use of military force in Syria. President Obama has asked Congress to approve the use of force in Syria in response to the apparent use of chemical weapons by the regime of President Bashar Assad. The language approved by the committee establishes a 60-day time limit for the use of force and prohibits the use of U.S. Troops on the ground in Syria. The committee also added language at the behest of Sen. John McCain emphasizing that the goal of military action would be to shift the momentum in Syria's ongoing civil war against the Assad regime. The full Senate will still have to vote on the resolution. Ref. USAToday
