On the Iran Powers Resolution. The successful passage of our War Powers Resolution yesterday reasserts what the American people have been saying for months. Trump's reckless war with Iran must end. For the first time, this resolution has passed both chambers of Congress and does not require the President's signature. The message from the only branch of government with the power to declare war, the Congress could not be more clear. The Trump administration must withdraw U.S. forces from hostility in Iran.
