I appreciate the support for clawing back war powers from Trump.
That said, the War Powers Act doesn't delegate any authority to the POTUS. It only defines reporting requirements when the POTUS acts within his Constitutionally delegated authority, which Trump did not.
Congress has the exclusive authority under the Constitution to declare war and authorize the use of force. The War Powers Act of 1973 delegates some of that authority to the president for a limited period of time.
That authority has expired, and my support of this resolution tonight is consistent with my belief that it is time for Congress to decide the scope of the mission and the appropriate limits on the use of force in Iran.

Wait... was Lebanon even fighting with Israel? I'm pretty sure it was just Israel destroying Lebanon, claiming Hezbollah was hiding in every hospital, church & school.
BREAKING: Israel and Lebanon have agreed to a ceasefire in a major U.S.-brokered diplomatic breakthrough.
The agreement was reached after days of negotiations led by the Trump administration, with both countries committing to halt hostilities and continue direct talks aimed at a broader peace deal.
The ceasefire remains conditional on Hezbollah ending attacks, withdrawing fighters from southern Lebanon, and preventing the return of armed groups to the area.
So let me get this straight.
Jake Tapper is focused on attacking my Mom.
Jared and Ivanka are building a private island paradise on Albanian protected land.
Don Jr married the daughter of Epstein’s banker, and a startup his fund backs just got a record $620M Pentagon loan.
Eric is taking an Israeli drone company public for $1.5B in the middle of a war with Iran that nobody wanted.
And I know: “But what about your paintings, Hunter?”
Please.
The United States of America is a sovereign nation.
Section 224 of the 2027 National Defense Authorization Act must be removed.
Our military should not be integrated in any capacity with a foreign country’s military.
Nor should we be funding it.
I don't particularly care for the socialism aspect of this idea, but AI companies wouldn't have a product if not for the public.
If you've ever posted words or pictures to the Internet, AI couldn't exist without you, not you exclusively, but you get the idea.
I will soon be introducing a bill to give the public a 50% ownership stake in the largest AI companies in America.
This would guarantee that the trillions created by AI are used to improve the lives of all of us — and block oligarch decisions that harm the American people.
@jpspsb@FoxNews Yeah, it's not like Trump has ever had to beg Israel on social media to not violate a ceasefire agreement by bombing Iran & then they bombed a radar station anyway.
