Senate Panel OKs Libya Resolution

Politico reports:

A key Senate panel on Tuesday waded into the fight over President Barack Obama’s use of military force in Libya, overwhelmingly approving a resolution authorizing the mission just days after the House rejected a similar measure.

The Senate Foreign Relations Committee voted 14-5 in favor of the legally binding resolution, which would expire after one year and bar the deployment of U.S. ground troops in the North African nation.
