Bipartisan lawmakers to introduce resolution to prohibit US involvement in Iran

UNITED STATES, JUN 24 – The bipartisan resolution invokes the War Powers Resolution of 1973 to require congressional approval for any U.S. military action against Iran amid escalating Middle East tensions.

  • On Tuesday, Representatives Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie unveiled a joint bill aimed at preventing U.S. military action in the Iran conflict without explicit congressional consent.
  • The resolution emerged amid rising Israel-Iran hostilities and intends to uphold the Constitution's grant to Congress of sole war-declaring authority.
  • The bill seeks to ban federal money for military force against Iran except for self-defense, with support from multiple Democrats including Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and endorsement from Senator Tim Kaine in the Senate.
  • Khanna declared "No war in Iran" on X and Massie wrote, "This is not our war" and that Congress must decide war matters according to the Constitution.
  • The legislation aims to prevent an executive unilateral war decision, reflecting public opposition where 60% of Americans oppose US involvement in the conflict, and urging members to go on record.
