00:00The United States House of Representatives on Wednesday backed a resolution enforced to the President of the United States, Donald
00:07Trump,
00:07to withdraw United States forces from Iran unless he obtains congressional approval to continue the war.
00:14The House voted 215 to 208 in favor of the War Powers Resolution, with four Republicans joining Democrats.
00:23The measure seeks to rein Trump's authority to continue the conflict which has lasted more than 90 days.
00:30The trees hold after which the 1973 War Powers Act requires congressional approval.
00:36The White House has rejected that argument, stating a temporary ceasefire that has been in place since April 8.
00:43Although it has been broken several times by the United States and Israel, the resolution heads to the Senate for
00:49consideration.
