The House of Representatives passed a war powers resolution on Wednesday to halt U.S. military action against Iran, with a vote of 215-208.
The measure defies President Donald Trump as opposition to the three-month-long war grows. - The resolution is the fourth attempt by the House to curb the war and the first to pass.
- The Senate advanced a similar measure last month with GOP support. - The war has cost over $100 billion and led to gas price spikes due to disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz.
The resolution now goes to the Senate for a final vote, though it is largely symbolic and would not immediately stop military action.
