US House Again Passes Resolution Calling on Trump to End Hostilities Against Iran
With bipartisan support from a few Republicans, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the Iran War Powers Resolution for the second time, requiring Trump to stop the war against Iran. The roll call vote result in the House that day was 214 votes in favor and 208 votes against. Four Republican representatives voted in favor of the resolution along with Democrats. In June this year, the House passed a similar resolution, at which time similarly four Republican representatives voted in favor. This action is largely symbolic, but it also highlights the unpopularity of the Iran war and the growing concerns of a few Republican congressmen—that they may encounter strong opposition in the midterm congressional elections only a few months later.

In June this year, the House previously passed a similar resolution, at which time four Republican representatives also voted in favor.
