                           TEXT OF AMENDMENTS

  SA 1849. Mr. PAUL submitted an amendment intended to be proposed by 
him to the joint resolution S.J. Res. 21, to authorize the limited and 
specified use of the United States Armed Forces against Syria; which 
was ordered to lie on the table; as follows:

       At the appropriate place, insert the following:

     SEC. __. TERMINATION OF THE PRESIDENT'S AUTHORITY TO USE 
                   FORCE AGAINST THE GOVERNMENT OF SYRIA.

         Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the authority 
     to use force resides in Congress, and the President does not 
     have authority to carry out the military action set forth in 
     this resolution absent passage of the resolution.
