NEW @NBCNews: Congressional Democrats and a few Republicans say they'll force a vote to limit Trump’s military actions in Iran

Republicans in Congress largely praised President Donald Trump's strikes on Iran, but a few of them joined Democrats in saying he needs congressional authorization for war.

“I am opposed to this War. This is not ‘America First,’” says @RepThomasMassie, R-Ky.

“War requires Congressional authorization,” added @WarrenDavidson, R-Ohio.

"Today, we join virtually every other news organization in declining to agree to the Pentagon’s new requirements, which would restrict journalists’ ability to keep the nation and the world informed of important national security issues. The policy is without precedent and threatens core journalistic protections. We will continue to cover the U.S. military as each of our organizations has done for many decades, upholding the principles of a free and independent press.”

I’m sitting here at water’s edge near DCA as we cover this story for @nbcnews. I can’t help but think that the people on the flight who were minutes from landing, were probably staring out the window at the beautiful monuments of Washington, excited to be home or to be visiting
