War Powers Resolution on Iran - US

June 10 , 2026 15 hrs 0 min 49 0

The US House passed a War Powers Resolution aiming to limit President Donald Trump’s military action in Iran.
The House passed the resolution by a 215–208 vote to restrict US military operations and require Congressional approval or troop withdrawal.
The measure is largely symbolic and reflects growing opposition to the ongoing Iran war and its economic impact, including higher fuel prices.
If it also passed by the US Senate (United States Senate), it could still face legal challenges and would need Presidential approval or a veto override.
After passage in both Houses, differences in text would need reconciliation, and a veto by the President would require a two-thirds majority in both Houses to override.
