Congress Splits on War Powers Resolutions to Force Trump to Abandon Iran War
Congress split on advancing a pair of war powers resolutions aimed at forcing President Donald Trump to abandon his war with Iran. The moves were the first vote since Trump informed Congress that he rested his authority to wage war with Iran. The resolutions, if passed, would limit Trump's ability to wage war with Iran without congressional approval. The move is seen as a significant step towards reining in Trump's war powers. However, the outcome of the vote is uncertain, and it remains to be seen whether the resolutions will be passed.
