Abstract

The article examines the efforts of U.S. President Barack Obama's administration to gain Congressional support for a military strike against Syria following a report that the country's regime used chemical weapons against its citizens. Particular attention is given to the growing opposition to military action from both Democrats and Republicans from the Senate and House. Details are provided on the administration's lobbying efforts with various political organizations and think tanks.
