## Resource

The House just voted to halt U.S. military action in Iran, sending a stark message to the President — and it’s not the first time. With 214 in favor and 208 opposed, the symbolic but significant move signals waning support on Capitol Hill as lawmakers question the administration’s strategy. Though most Republicans still back the President’s war powers, a handful joined Democrats to pass the resolution. The President called the vote “unpatriotic,” insisting U.S. actions aren’t a retreat from war — but airstrikes keep rolling as diplomacy stalls. The Strait of Hormuz, a global energy lifeline, is now a flashpoint, driving up gas prices and adding pressure ahead of midterms. Defense officials say the war has already cost $37.5 billion, and the President honored fallen troops — a reminder of the human toll. Lawmakers demand accountability as Americans grow frustrated: polls show most disapprove of the President’s handling, doubting whether this conflict is worth the cost or even effective in stopping Iran’s nuclear ambitions.
