President Trump has expanded military operations across multiple regions during his second term. U.S. forces are targeting drug-smuggling boats in the eastern Pacific while American and Iranian officials work toward a peace agreement.
The House of Representatives voted 215-208 to pass a war powers resolution requiring Trump to seek Congressional approval before continuing military operations against Iran or withdraw U.S. forces. Four Republicans—Thomas Massie, Brian Fitzpatrick, Warren Davidson, and Tom Barrett—joined Democrats in supporting the measure, which now goes to the Senate.
