Democrates want to limit Trumps "war power" Congress resolution

As Members of Congress, our first responsibility is to keep the American people safe. For this reason, we are concerned that the Administration took this action without the consultation of Congress and without respect for Congress’s war powers granted to it by the Constitution.
This week, the House will introduce and vote on a War Powers Resolution to limit the President’s military actions regarding Iran. This resolution is similar to the resolution introduced by Senator Tim Kaine in the Senate. It reasserts Congress’s long-established oversight responsibilities by mandating that if no further Congressional action is taken, the Administration’s military hostilities with regard to Iran cease within 30 days."

Could have enacted six of these on Obama. Regardless, 30 days is enough to turn the dust under the pile of rubble Iran was to dust too, I guess that's OK if he uses em.

Actually all stops must be pulled to oppose this. Next week if someone attacks America democrats like, they can block him. It sets an unbearably dangerous precedent.

These congressmen are bought and paid for by Iran!

I was thinking something along the lines, but in the future, an enemy's military budget can consist largely of bribes to congressmen and castrate America at will.
