 CONTINUED PRESENCE OF UNITED STATES TROOPS IN IRAQ UNTIL AT LEAST 2009

  Mr. WYDEN submitted the following resolution; which was referred to 
the Committee on Foreign Relations:

                              S. Res. 515

       Resolved, That it is the sense of the Senate that--

     respect and support of the Senate and the American people for 
     the sacrifices that they are making on behalf of our country; 
     and

       (2) the President's intention, as stated on March 21, 2006, 
     that ``future Presidents'' will determine whether to keep 
     members of the Armed Forces in Iraq undermines the 
     preparedness of the United States military to respond to 
     other crises and should not be supported.
