Boston, MA – Massachusetts Senator John Kerry is turning his attention to how the United States should end the war in Afghanistan. WAMC's Paul Tuthill reports...
The Massachusetts Democrat is holding two hearings in Washington this week that he says will help articulate a policy of how the war in Afghanistan should end "in a way that makes America stronger."
Kerry, chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee, said a second hearing this week will examine the United States' strategic relationship with Afghanistan's neighbor, Pakistan.
Massachusetts Senator Scott Brown, announced Monday that he will go to Afghanistan this summer as part of his commitment to the National Guard. Brown is an officer in the Judge Advocate General's corps, and has never before deployed to a combat zone.
