House Votes to Condemn Biden, Harris Over Afghanistan Withdrawal That Killed 13 Servicemembers
Sep 25, 2024, 03:10 PM
The House of Representatives has voted to formally condemn President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, and other administration officials for their handling of the 2021 U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan. The resolution, which saw bipartisan support with 10 Democrats crossing party lines, criticizes the administration for the chaotic and deadly nature of the withdrawal that resulted in the deaths of 13 American servicemembers at Abbey Gate. Secretary of State Antony Blinken, who has been accused of defying a congressional subpoena to testify on the matter, is also a focal point of the condemnation. House Republicans, led by Michael McCaul, have expressed their intent to hold Blinken in contempt of Congress for his refusal to appear before the committee. The resolution underscores the ongoing demand for accountability from the Biden administration for the perceived failures in the Afghanistan withdrawal, which occurred three years ago.
