Congress Passes Bill Limiting Trump’s War Powers Without Congressional Approval
June 4, 2026
Congress pushed back.
In a rare bipartisan rebuke, the Republican-led U.S. House of Representatives voted 215–208 to pass a war powers resolution aimed at limiting President Donald Trump’s ability to continue military action against Iran without approval from Congress. Four Republicans joined Democrats in backing the measure.
The moment shown in this video is the official reading of the vote tally by Tylease Alli, Reading Clerk of the U.S. House of Representatives.
For many Americans, this vote is about more than Iran.
It is about who gets to decide when a nation goes to war.
For once, lawmakers chose restraint over escalation.
And that matters.
