House Passes Resolution to Halt Military Action in Iran, Rebuking Trump

The House of Representatives approved a war powers resolution on Wednesday that would halt U.S. military action against Iran, delivering a sharp rebuke to President Donald Trump.

The measure, which passed with a handful of Republicans joining Democrats, seeks to end the ongoing military engagement and reassert congressional authority over war powers. The resolution now moves to the Senate, where its fate remains uncertain.

Supporters argue that the president exceeded his constitutional authority by ordering strikes without congressional approval, while opponents contend that the resolution undermines national security and ties the hands of the commander in chief. The vote reflects deepening divisions over U.S.

foreign policy in the Middle East and comes amid heightened tensions between Washington and Tehran.
