The War Powers Resolution of 1973

Tenth Amendment Center 

"Under the U.S. Constitution, the President has no authority to declare war, even if Congress tries to delegate that power to the executive branch. One constitutional violation opens the floodgates to TOTAL power"

"Thomas Jefferson saw how the game works. Give them an inch? They take EVERYTHING."

"To take a single step beyond the boundaries thus specially drawn around the powers of Congress, is to take possession of a boundless field of power"

H.Con.Res.38 War Powers Resolution

U.S. Representatives Massie, Khanna Introduce Bipartisan War Powers Resolution to Prohibit Involvement in Iran

Washington, D.C.- Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) announces that he has introduced a bipartisan WAR POWERS RESOLUTION H.CON.RES.38 - To prohibit "United States Armed Forces from unauthorized hostilities in the Islamic Republic of Iran." War Powers Resolutions are privileged in the House of Representatives and can be called up for debate and a floor vote after 15 calendar days without action in committee.

"The Constitution does not permit the executive branch to unilaterally commit an act of war against a sovereign nation that hasn't attacked the United States," said Rep. Massie. "Congress has the sole power to declare war against Iran. The ongoing war between Israel and Iran is not our war. Even if it were, Congress must decide such matters according to our Constitution."

Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) joined Rep. Massie as co-lead of the Iran War Powers Resolution.

"No president should be able to bypass Congress’s constitutional authority over matters of war. The American people do not want to be dragged into another disastrous conflict in the Middle East. I’m proud to lead this bipartisan War Powers Resolution with Rep. Massie to reassert that any military action against Iran must be authorized by Congress,” said Rep. Khanna.

In addition to Reps. Massie and Khanna, original cosponsors include Rep. Don Beyer (D-VA), Rep. Gregorio Casar (D-TX), Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Rep. Lloyd Doggett (D-TX), Rep. Chuy Garcia (D-IL), Rep. Val Hoyle (D-OR), Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA), Rep. Summer Lee (D-PA), Rep. Jim McGovern (D-MA), Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Rep. Ayanna Presley (D-MA), Rep. Delia Ramirez (D-IL), Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), and Rep. Nydia Velazquez (D-NY). Senator Tim Kaine (D-VA) has introduced companion legislation in the United States Senate.
