                    RESPECTING THE U.S. CONSTITUTION

  (Mr. Green of Texas was recognized to address the House for 5 
minutes.)
  Mr. GREEN of Texas. Mr. Speaker, and still I rise.
  Mr. Speaker, I rise today with a very special message--an admonition, 
a prewarning--for the most powerful man in the universe, I am told, the 
President of the United States of America.
  Mr. Speaker, there is talk of having to go back into Iran. There is 
talk of the job not having been done as expected.
  I make no comments about whether he should or shouldn't go, but I do 
comment on the Constitution. I do say to the most powerful man in the 
universe: Mr. President, if you go back into Iran and do not get the 
consent of Congress or appropriately notice Congress, Mr. President, I 
will bring Articles of Impeachment against you again.
  Mr. President, no one person should have the authority to take 300-
plus million people to war on his own volition. The Congress of the 
United States must be engaged in this process.
  Mr. President, it is pretty simple. Either you will respect the 
Constitution of the United States of America, or you will expect Al 
Green.
