On June 3, 2026, the House of Representatives passed a resolution aimed at limiting President Donald Trump's military actions in Iran. The vote, which concluded with a tally of 215-208, saw four Republicans joining all Democrats in support of the measure, which was led by Rep. Gregory Meeks of New York. The resolution directs the President to withdraw U.S. armed forces from hostilities with Iran unless Congress declares war or authorizes military force. While the resolution is largely symbolic and does not mandate an end to the conflict, it reflects growing opposition to the war among lawmakers.
This vote follows previous attempts by Democrats to pass similar resolutions, which had been rejected by Republicans earlier in the year. Speaker Mike Johnson and most Republicans opposed the resolution, arguing that it undermines the President during ongoing negotiations for a nuclear deal with Iran. In a separate vote, the House also moved forward with legislation to provide aid to Ukraine, which had garnered enough support to bypass GOP leadership.
