The House on April 16, 2026 again rejected a bipartisan Massie-Khanna war powers resolution seeking to constrain President Trump's ongoing military campaign against Iran, with only two Republicans — Thomas Massie and Warren Davidson — breaking ranks. The vote, which followed the Senate's fourth defeat of a parallel measure, leaves the Trump administration to prosecute the conflict on contested Article II authority alone, with the War Powers Resolution's 60-day clock expiring at the end of April. Republican support for limits on Iran war powers has sharply contracted from eight GOP senators in 2020 to effectively one in 2026, even as casualties, costs, and crude oil prices climb.
