U.S. Congress Advances War Powers Resolutions to Limit Iran Hostilities
The U.S. Congress has backed war powers resolutions aimed at limiting President Trump's authority to continue hostilities against Iran, reflecting bipartisan concern over the conflict that began in late February. The War Powers Resolution requires presidential notification within 48 hours of military action and mandates termination within 60 days without congressional approval. While the Senate has advanced a resolution procedurally and the House passed a similar measure, both face significant challenges, including potential vetoes and procedural hurdles before becoming effective.
