The measure passed 215-208, and the House described it as an order to the President under section 5(c) of the War Powers Resolution.<\/p>\n<p>Politico characterized the vote as largely symbolic because President Donald Trump would likely veto any restriction on his authority,but noted it signals dissent within the Republican Party and could influence similar Senate action. The article also places the vote in the context of Trump\u2019s ongoing negotiations with Iran, and also other upcoming or parallel legislative battles, including House actions on Russia sanctions and Ukraine aid, and Senate moves affecting funding tied to a White House ballroom project.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><br \/>\n<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-\/\/W3C\/\/DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional\/\/EN\" \"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/TR\/REC-html40\/loose.dtd\"><br \/>\n<?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><html><body><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Four House Republicans sided with Democrats in a vote to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/russia-says-it-is-ready-to-stop-invasion-in-a-moment-if-ukraine-meets-conditions\/\" title=\"Russia Says It Is Ready To Stop Invasion \u2018In A Moment\u2019 If Ukraine Meets Conditions\">halt military operations<\/a> in the Middle East without further congressional approval.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/clerk.house.gov\/Votes\/2026199?Page=2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">vote<\/a> for the resolution was 215 in favor and 208 against.<\/p>\n<p>The vote was described on the House <a href=\"https:\/\/clerk.house.gov\/Votes\/2026199?Page=2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">website<\/a> as \u201cDirecting the President, pursuant to section 5(c) of the War Powers Resolution, to remove United States Armed Forces from hostilities with Iran.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Not surprisingly, Rep. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/breaking-thomas-massie-loses-trump-backed-ed-gallrein-hotly-contested-primary\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Thomas Massie<\/a> of Kentucky was one of the four Republicans to join with Democrats, along with Reps.
