This week, U.S. Senator Thom Tillis (R-NC) and his colleagues, introduced a bill establishing a bipartisan, bicameral joint select committee on Afghanistan to conduct a full investigation into President Biden’s failed and tragic withdrawal of U.S. forces from Afghanistan. As a result of Biden’s disastrous withdrawal, hundreds of Americans were stranded behind enemy lines, billions of dollars in U.S. military equipment were abandoned, and tragically, the lives of 13 brave U.S. servicemembers were lost. This Joint Select Committee would follow the precedent set in the aftermath of the Iran-Contra affair.
