Senate Urges Bush to Report Progress on Ending War (Update2)

Nov. 15 (Bloomberg) -- The Senate today called on President George W. Bush to explain his strategy for ending the war in Iraq and report every three months on progress until all U.S. troops stationed there are redeployed.

The measure, passed 79-19, is one of several attached to a major defense bill that reflect unease within the president's own party as polls show increasing public impatience with the conflict and Democrats step up criticism.

The measure calls on the administration to make 2006 a year of significant political and military transition in Iraq that will allow a phased reduction of U.S. forces.

The Senate ``needs to send the strongest possible message to the Iraqi people and the government formed there'' that ``we mean business, we have done our share, now the challenge is up to you,'' John Warner of Virginia, chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, said. >>>cont
