Senate Majority Leader John Thune: Congress Should Wait on Iran War Powers Resolution

Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) stated on Tuesday that it is premature for Congress to consider a war powers resolution aimed at restricting President Trump’s ability to use military force against Iran.

Thune expressed his views to reporters on Capitol Hill, emphasizing that the recent conflict between Iran and Israel should not rush Congress into making decisions. He believes that the president has acted within his authority in response to the escalating situation.

Thune suggested that if the conflict persists, a more comprehensive discussion on the role of Congress may be necessary, particularly regarding potential actions to be taken. He expressed hope for a peaceful resolution, with Iran complying with Trump’s demands regarding its nuclear program.

While the Trump administration denies involvement in Israel’s military operations against Iran, tensions have risen, prompting concerns about potential U.S. intervention in the region.

Senator Tim Kaine (D-Va.) introduced legislation to prevent a war with Iran, emphasizing the need for congressional debate and approval before committing to military action.

Representative Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) echoed similar sentiments, highlighting the constitutional requirement for Congress to declare war. He emphasized that the ongoing conflict between Israel and Iran should not automatically involve U.S. military action.

Members of the “Squad,” including Representatives Ocasio-Cortez, Omar, Tlaib, Lee, and Presley, have endorsed Massie’s legislation, emphasizing the need for congressional oversight in matters of war.

As debates continue in Congress, the focus remains on avoiding unnecessary military involvement and promoting diplomatic solutions to the Iran-Israel conflict.
