US House rejects war powers resolution, backs Trump on Iran war

The United States House of Representatives rejected a measure that sought to halt President Donald Trump's air campaign against Iran and require explicit authorization from Congress for further military action. The decision effectively allows the administration to continue its operations as the conflict enters its sixth day.

The resolution was defeated by a vote of 219 to 212. With a narrow majority in the chamber, Republican lawmakers largely supported the president’s approach, blocking the effort to limit executive war powers and signaling continued backing for the ongoing military campaign.
