US Lawmakers Fail to Check Trump on War-Making Power With Iran
(Worthy News) – The U.S. Senate failed to override a White House veto Thursday, bringing an end to a four-month congressional effort to limit presidential power to unilaterally take the United States into war.
The resolution reaffirms the U.S. Congress’ constitutional power to declare war, part of a long-running debate that was revived earlier this year during a time of escalating tensions between the United States and Iran. If passed, the resolution would have required U.S. presidents to halt the use of force against Iran unless authorized by Congress.
President Donald Trump vetoed the resolution Wednesday, calling it “very insulting” and said it would have “greatly harmed the president’s ability to protect the United States, its allies, and its partners.” [ Source: VOA News (Read More…) ]
