US House fails to pass War Powers resolution, leaving Trump's military action against Iran unrestricted

The US House of Representatives failed to pass a Democratic-led War Powers resolution aimed at limiting President Trump's ability to use military force against Iran, with a tied vote of 212-212. Falling short of a simple majority, the proposal was rejected. This marks the third time this year the House has voted on the measure. Democrats argue that Trump must seek congressional authorization for military action and warn of long-term conflict without clear strategy. Republicans defend the President's constitutional authority as Commander-in-Chief to order limited military actions against imminent threats to protect the nation.
