The House votes down Representative Rashida Tlaib’s H.Con.Res. 108, which would have limited President Donald Trump’s authority to direct US forces connected to the Israel-Lebanon war, failing 189-235 after Democratic leaders moved to support a revised version.The nonbinding concurrent resolution sought a seven-day removal of US armed forces from hostilities in Lebanon while preserving embassy protection and continued assistance to the Lebanese Armed Forces, invoking the 1973 War Powers Act to reassert congressional oversight.The vote exposes growing Democratic concern about US support for Israel amid a humanitarian crisis in Lebanon that has displaced a fifth of the population and killed thousands, and it comes as stalled US-Iran talks linking Israeli withdrawal to
Hezbollah disarmament proceed uncertainly.
