BREAKING: Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie are racing to force a Congressional vote on a War Powers Resolution, to stop Trump before he starts a war with Iran.

**BREAKING: Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie Push for War Powers Vote to Curb Potential Conflict with Iran**

WASHINGTON — In a rare bipartisan move, Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna of California and Republican Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky are racing to force a House vote on a War Powers Resolution aimed at preventing former President Donald Trump from initiating military action against Iran without congressional approval.

The lawmakers announced their effort amid rising tensions between Washington and Tehran, arguing that the Constitution grants Congress — not the president — the authority to declare war. Their proposed resolution would require explicit authorization from Congress before U.S. forces could engage in hostilities against Iran, except in cases of direct self-defense.

Khanna said the measure is intended to “reassert Congress’s Article I authority” and ensure that any decision to enter another conflict in the Middle East is publicly debated and voted on by elected representatives. Massie echoed that sentiment, emphasizing that “no president should unilaterally commit American troops to war without the consent of the people’s representatives.”

The War Powers Resolution mechanism allows lawmakers to compel a vote on removing U.S. armed forces from hostilities that have not been authorized by Congress. While similar efforts have surfaced in the past, including during periods of heightened U.S.–Iran tensions, this new push underscores continued bipartisan concern about executive war-making powers.

It remains unclear whether House leadership will bring the measure to the floor swiftly, but supporters say they are working to gather enough backing to force consideration. The effort is likely to spark intense debate on Capitol Hill over presidential authority, national security, and the risk of escalation with Iran.

If successful, the resolution would not only shape immediate U.S. policy toward Iran but could also redefine the balance of war powers between Congress and the White House moving forward.
