Examples of invoking in a Sentence

1. Laura Berger:

   So it is an extraordinary situation, and it's an extreme situation. And it's a situation where my organization has criticized the government for overreaching and for invoking the act, even though we don't feel the situation meets the very high threshold required at law to declare a national emergency.

2. Ashish Jha:

   We're looking at the company that makes it. We're looking at their ability to produce more. We're talking to them about contract manufacturing in the United States and being able to produce more vaccines here, so we're looking at a whole range of options. Obviously, if other tools that the federal government has at its disposal are helpful, we will not be shy about invoking those tools. But right now, we are looking at these sets of factors to see how much more vaccine can we get in United States.

3. Eliot Engel:

   I welcome debate in Congress based on the merits of policy, but it's unacceptable and deeply offensive to call into question the loyalty of fellow American citizens because of their political views, including support for the US-Israel relationship, we all take the same oath. Worse, Representative Omar comments leveled that charge by invoking a vile anti-Semitic slur.

4. Mark Esper:

   The option to use active duty forces in a law enforcement role should only be used as a matter of last resort, and only in the most urgent and dire of situations. We are not in one of those situations now. I do not support invoking the Insurrection Act.

5. Peter Feaver:

   Protests, for now, have been relatively peaceful compared with earlier in the week, and looting and fires are not as prevalent as they once were last weekend. Mark Esper ordered active-duty Army units to go back home after Mark Esper put them on alert in case they would be necessary to respond to the unrest in the D.C. metro area. But domestic political consequences are playing out just atthe mere mention of invoking the law. When you use military forces to do law enforcement its always politically fraught, theres always a political price to pay and its not the optimal use of the military.
