House Narrowly Rejects Bid to End Trump’s Iran War
TL;DR
The House voted 213-214, largely along party lines, to reject a measure directing President Trump to end U.S. hostilities with Iran. Only Rep. Thomas Massie voted for the measure, while Rep. Jared Golden voted against it and Rep. Warren Davidson voted present. The proposal, tied to the War Powers Resolution, would require withdrawal from hostilities unless Congress explicitly authorizes it. The outcome keeps Trump’s Iran campaign in place; the Senate had previously rejected a similar measure, and public polling shows broad disapproval of the war.
