Whereas, with more information on Post Traumatic Stress 
Disorder than ever, any military engagement must focus 
in creating a deployment strategy that minimizes 
stressors to the greatest ability possible, including the re-
duction in repeated deployment without time at home; 
Whereas temporary duty assignments limit the ability of the 
United States Armed Forces to counter the ISIS threat 
by providing less time at home for training and family;

Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that 
the President should provide Congress with a detailed

for authorization to commit United States Armed Forces 
to fight the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria. 
Whereas the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, known as ISIS, 
has taken advantage of a political power vacuum in Iraq 
left by the United States exiting the country before the 
mission was complete; 
Whereas the ongoing Syrian civil war, beginning in 2011, has 
created a freedom of mobility for radicalized networks 
and organizations to go to Syria;

Whereas, in the summer of 2014, ISIS grew exponentially in 
the region, ultimately threatening Bagdad; 
Whereas, on September 10, 2014, President Barack Obama 
committed to degrading and destroying ISIS through a 
global coalition; 
Whereas United States Armed Forces commitment was to air 
operations and training of opposition forces; 
Whereas, on February 6, 2015, the President signaled plans 
to submit to Congress a request for use of United States 
ground forces in the fight against ISIS; 
Whereas Use of Military Force requests should be contingent 
on the President, acting as Commander in Chief, pro-
viding Congress with a clear and definitive deployment 
and troop commitment plan; 
Whereas, in Vietnam, much of the United States Armed 
Forces fought without defined deployment commitments 
or planning resulting in troops facing repeated temporary 
duty assignment or deployment after deployment due to 
an inability to commit greater troop strength to the war; 
Whereas much of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan followed 
the same path, relying heavily on temporary duty assign-
ment and repeated deployments with little to no down-
time for the troops involved; 
Whereas President George W. Bush and President Barack 
Obama forced too much of the mission duties on too 
small of a cross-section of our Armed Forces, never com-
mitting the true strength or size of our forces to the mis-
sion; 
Whereas continual and repeated deployment without time at 
home takes a heavy and unnecessary toll on the members 
of the United States Armed Forces and their families;
