-- >> congressman cole? >> i agree very much with what the chairman had to say. he's concerned about war powers long before there was a republican president. we were working on this one -- when president obama was in. you can't question jim mcgovern's credentials in this regard. he has raised this from an institutional standpoint. i think he's the ideal person to lead this discussion because he demonstrated his loyalty and interest in defending the institution of the house of representatives, regardless of who was president and who was speaker. so we approach it very much in that fashion. and i think we were talking together, somebody made the point, we have very distinguished witnesses. wouldn't it be wonderful if no one, at the end of the day, could tell if it was a republican witness or a democratic witness? these are people here to talk about the appropriate balance within the constitution of the united states. so there's a very widespread sense, and it spans the political spectrum and overlaps the partisan divide in congress, that we have simply given away t

and you know, my friend tom cole and i, we are from different political parties. i'm a liberal, he's a conservative. but we are both institutionalist. we both respect this institution. we both respect the constitution. we think that over the last few decades, congress has been too willing to cede authority that is rightfully ours to the executive branch. the executive branch has been only too willing to take it. at the end of the day, that doesn't serve the american people. i think it undermines the constitution. but it doesn't serve our constituents. we are the house of representatives. we are the closest to the people. we have to get elected every two years. you can't serve in this institution unless you have been voted on by the people. i think we are closer to where the people are. and so on some of these decisions that are being made, we should have a role in them. we are not right now. i think that does not serve our constituents well. so this is a good time to do it. by the way, this hearing is not going to be about donald trump or barack obama or bill clin

cole. >> i completely agree with you. political scientists described a rally around a fact once a war has begun and the war is very popular. it will be hard for congress at that point to pass a statute that cuts off funding over the president's expected veto. library books come with a date you have to return. if you don't have it, you'll just keep it for months or years because you might get around to reading it. i think professor spalding and i have a difference of opinion on the scope of the war power. the power to declare war is to pow tore go to war to use military force. and in the 18th century, most were declared from the cannons. they weren't started with a piece of paper. this was given to congress so congress would decide to wage war full stop. no president thought they could use force against a foreign nation. all the uses of force in the early years were authorized by congress in the washington administration, in the adams administration, et cetera. i think the administration has

cole: exactly. and i'll just make this plea and i'm out of time here, this isn't directed at you or your counterparts because i suspect they wanted to do it. this is a discussion that needs to happen between our political leaders and their political leaders. it is an area that with we should be able to cooperate with one another and help the overall relationship. so i just hope it is on the radar screen of our state department and our president as well, they need to have this kind of conversation privately. we're not trying to embarrass our friends or anything else, but they are a big part of the solution or the big part of the problems. they could choose to be one or the other. i know all of you have urged your counterparts to do that and i suspect they want to do that. they're professionals and dedicate their lives to defending people just like you do. this is one where the political leaders need to get involved for the good of all. that was my sermon. ms. delauro: take it to heart. congresswoman.

one person, tom cole, who has been associated with them, he has gone into voluntary quarantine. can you proceed normally? can congress do its job in a situation like this? >> stuart, as you know, maybe itch a concern about this i think that we should have the ability during times of emergency and these will be very rare instances, for congress to be able to express itself remotely. in other words, gathering the house of representatives right now is a decision, the speaker and the republican leader will have to make. i'm not going to prejudge what they might decide, but when you have people who have tested positive and people have been exposed to them, self-quarantining, it is hard for me to imagine right now people gathering in the normal way. maybe there is a way to gather through more social distancing but i think this is an example of where remote voting is necessary. in extreme situations like this.
