The House voted 215-208 for a resolution to end military action against Iran, with Warren Davidson among four Republicans supporting it. President Trump criticized the lawmakers, while Davidson and other members argued Congress should define or authorize the mission.
The article reports that the House passed the Iran war-powers resolution in a 215-208 vote, the first time it had passed in five attempts. Davidson said Congress should decide the mission’s scope and argued that military action should not come at the expense of the Constitution. He had also voted in March to require congressional support for future military action.
Trump criticized the four Republicans who voted for the resolution, calling them “grandstanders.” Tom Barrett also said Congress should decide the mission’s scope, while Shontel Brown and Emilia Sykes voiced support for ending an open-ended war. The resolution now goes to the Senate, and the article says it would likely draw a presidential veto if it reached the White House.
