House Approves War Powers Resolution

WASHINGTON (AP) — The House for the first time has approved a war powers resolution that would halt the U.S. military action against Iran. Wednesday’s action defied President Donald Trump as a handful of Republicans joined with Democrats to end the three-month-long war. House Speaker Mike Johnson had tried to prevent an outcome that would show the mounting opposition to the war. But displeasure has only grown as the conflict drags on. The roll call Wednesday was 215-208, but next steps are uncertain. Trump would likely reject any measure from Congress to limit his authority.
