Iran war pow­ers res­o­lu­tion pass­es House with sev­en Repub­li­can defec­tions

House Democ­rats suc­cess­ful­ly passed a res­o­lu­tion direct­ing Pres­i­dent Don­ald Trump to end the Iran war for a third time, with three new Repub­li­cans break­ing with the pres­i­dent from the usu­al four.
The res­o­lu­tion passed 220–204 with sev­en Repub­li­cans sup­port­ing the mea­sure, three more than who backed the leg­is­la­tion in two pre­vi­ous votes. Reps. Thomas Massie (R‑KY), Tom Bar­rett (R‑MI), War­ren David­son (R‑OH), and Bri­an Fitz­patrick (R‑PA), along with new “yes” votes Reps. Nan­cy Mace (R‑SC), Mar­i­an­nette Miller-Meeks (R‑IA), and Zach Nunn (R‑IA), broke with GOP lead­er­ship to sup­port the mea­sure.
