In response to the speed and unpredictability of foreign crises, Congress has increasingly ceded national security initiative to the President. It has then used the power of the purse to ratify or restrict what the President has done. This work explores the history, mechanics, and constitutional and statutory scope of the power of the purse in national security, using Vietnam War appropriations and the Boland Amendments as case studies.
