Sen. Blumenthal Calls for War Powers Resolution on Iran

Senator Richard Blumenthal says Congress should move forward with a War Powers Resolution amid concerns about potential military action involving Iran.

Blumenthal argued that the possibility of sudden military escalation highlights the need for the president to come before Congress and explain U.S. objectives, the intended endgame, and any proposed exit strategy.

The senator expressed concern about what he described as unilateral action without clear public explanation or congressional authorization, emphasizing Congress’s constitutional role in decisions related to war.
