US House votes to repeal longstanding war powers in Iraq
In a 261-167 vote, supported by 212 Democrats and 49 Republicans, the US House voted to repeal the legal justifications used to attack Iraq in 1991 and 2003, marking the latest attempt by Congress to revoke the president's authority to wage war or an attack. In 2020, Trump used the 2002 authorization as part of the legal justification for an airstrike that killed the IRGC's Quds Force commander Qassem Soleimani in Baghdad. The measure now heads to the Senate, where its fate will decide whether these decades-old authorizations finally come to an end.
