John Hoeven on War & Peace

Republican ND Governor

Empower commanders to decide when we're done in Afghanistan

I believe that we need to empower the commanders on the ground to make the personnel decisions that they need to accomplish their mission. Part of the process is helping the people of Afghanistan to create a stable government and for our troops to move into a support role instead of a combat role.
