US House Passes Resolution to Limit Trump's War Powers on Iran Conflict

US House Passes Resolution to Limit Trump's War Powers on Iran ConflictPrevious
Next

The US House of Representatives passed a war powers resolution 215-208 to limit President Trump's authority to continue military action against Iran, with four Republicans joining all Democrats in support. The resolution, introduced by Democrat Gregory Meeks, aims to end the conflict unless Congress formally approves further action. While symbolic and unlikely to override a presidential veto, the vote reflects growing bipartisan concern over the war's cost and duration amid ongoing peace negotiations.
