know what i haven't seen -- what do you think of this suggestion, i've talked to your colleague tim kainelot. why don't you go on record, why don't all the senators who know that this is unconstitutional on both ends, it's unconstitutional for him, it's unconstitutional for you to let him do it without having the discussion and the right process and the right finding. why not go on record on the floor of senate, get everybody who says we're supposed to do this, not him, so at least we know that god forbid something happens and people need to be held to account like after the iraq war, at least there was a vote there. my suspicion is, chris, that's why senators don't want to do it again, is you don't want to own it because we know what happened when you owned it the last time. >> well, you know, we don't want to own it, and i'm not amongst this group. i would vote for the right authorization of military force if the circumstances presented, but congress really doesn't want to own military action any longer because the definition of war and the end of war is messy. it's not as if armies mar

together with senator tim kaine, who represents another state with a very long history of tobacco production, i was proud to introduce a bill that builds on the existing structure that is already in place and simply raises the minimum wage to 21. rather than reinvent the wheel here in washington, it would set one national standard for enforcing new age 21 restrictions. it's a bill designed with states in mind and it would allow states to take measures even more restrictive than federal law if they choose. senator kaine and i have been grateful to see already, even in just the past few days, substantial support and recognition from public health advocates that our approach is the right way to address this pressing issue. already our legislation has earned the support of leading voices like the american cancer society, the american academy of pediatrics, and the american college of cardiology. the american heart association, the american lung association, and the american osteopathic association, the national association of secondary school principals, the foundation for a healthy kentucky, th
