The US Constitution grants the sole power to declare war to the Congress. It gives the President the commander in chief title to allow him the sole power to carry out the mission. Congress through the war powers act gave some authority to the president to start without asking first but still holding the power to decide if it will continue. Lately the executive branch has pushed the boundaries they were given so now it must be reigned in.
