LIVE VIDEO: House Votes To Limit Trump’s War Powers

CBS News reports:



The House is set to vote Thursday afternoon on a resolution limiting President Trump’s ability to engage in hostilities against Iran under the 1973 War Powers Resolution, as Democrats attempt to reassert Congress’ constitutional authority to declare war amid a tense standoff with the Islamic Republic.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi unveiled the resolution on Wednesday, and lawmakers debated the measure for several hours Thursday. The resolution is sponsored by Congresswoman Elissa Slotkin, a freshman Democrat and former analyst for the Central Intelligence Agency and the Department of Defense.
