US Lawmakers To Vote On War Powers Resolution

Congress Challenges Trump's Authority In Iran Conflict

US lawmakers are set to vote on a war powers resolution that would limit President Trump’s ability to use military force in Iran without congressional authorization. The resolution, sponsored by Sen. Tim Kaine, comes as the conflict in Iran continues to escalate, with three US servicemembers killed and several others wounded. The vote is expected to take place on Tuesday or Wednesday, and while its passage is uncertain, it could put pressure on the White House to change its behavior or provide more information about the operation. This development was first reported by Breaking Defense.
