US EditionBipartisan lawmakers to introduce resolution to prohibit US involvement in Iran
UNITED STATES, JUN 24 – The bipartisan bill aims to uphold constitutional war powers by requiring congressional approval before the U.S. can engage militarily with Iran, amid escalating Israel-Iran tensions.
- On Tuesday, bipartisan Reps. Massie and Khanna filed a War Powers Resolution to prevent Trump from striking Iran without congressional approval.
- Amid rising Israel-Iran hostilities, Trump considered military strikes, prompting a War Powers Resolution grounded in the U.S. Constitution to limit presidential war authority.
- Massie and Khanna introduced a bill invoking the 1973 War Powers Resolution, requiring 48-hour notice and limiting military actions to 60 days unless Congress authorizes.
- Support for the resolution grows, with Demand Progress praising it and more lawmakers expected to join, as a House vote is scheduled within days.
- Beyond the current bipartisan efforts, NBC News highlights a rare 'horseshoe' convergence of far-left and far-right skeptics, potentially reshaping U.S. war powers oversight amid ongoing Middle East tensions.
