Pramila Jayapal. The vote was 214 to 208. Republican Reps. Thomas Massie, Brian Fitzpatrick, Tom Barrett and Warren Davidson crossed party lines to support the resolution.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            The House resolution amounts to a significant rebuke. But even if it passed the Senate, it would not compel the administration to end the war. Concurrent resolutions, which are not presented to the president for signature or veto, lack the force of law.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            The Senate will vote later on Thursday on its own effort to rein in Trump\u2019s war powers in Iran.\n    <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/?p=7023\">Trump places new condition on signed Saudi nuclear deal, says country must join Abraham Accords<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n            The vote came amid an escalation of the renewed conflict after a recent ceasefire came to an end.

This vote comes after the recent ceasefire came to an end, renewing the spotlight on the conflict.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Some Democrats who champion the war powers efforts have argued that the concurrent resolutions are still legally binding, and argue the courts have not ruled on whether they lack legal effect when dealing with war powers measures.\n    <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/?p=7019\">Trump has activated a secretive court for deporting \u2018alien terrorists.\u2019 Here\u2019s what to know<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n<em>This story is breaking and will be updated. <\/em>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The US House voted to halt President Donald Trump\u2019s war in Iran absent congressional approval, the latest repudiation by lawmakers of the president\u2019s handling of the conflict.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":7028,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7029","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-politics"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
