In a rebuke to President Donald Trump on Wednesday, the US House for the first time approved a war powers resolution that would halt the US military action against Iran.
The war powers resolution is a federal law enacted to check the president's power to commit the US to an armed conflict. [music] It requires the president to seek congressional approval to continue military action if fighting goes on longer than 60 days.
The war with Iran started back in February.
The administration has indicated that because a ceasefire has been declared, the hostilities have ceased.
While a ceasefire was declared back in April, it still remains uneasy.
Talks for a more durable end to the fighting have dragged, increasingly complicated by Israel's broadening war with Iran-backed Hezbollah militants in Lebanon.
Meanwhile, military strikes between the US and Iran have continued to flare.
So, why is this important?
Each time Democrats have pushed forward the war powers resolution, the vote tallies have inched higher as political unease with the US war swells.
Defying President Donald Trump's war strategy, four Republicans joined Democrats in the vote to end the 3-month-long conflict.
It's a rare show of political pushback from his own party.
The House voted 215 to 208 in favor of the resolution.
While it doesn't immediately stop the war, it would provide a symbolic, if not legal, step against further military action.
Trump blasted the vote in a post on social media Thursday, saying, "Who would do such an unpatriotic thing?
They know where the negotiation stands. [music] They would rather have our country fail than give me another of many victories."
The resolution next goes to the Senate, where four Republican senators last month joined Democrats in advancing a similar measure.
