The symbolic vote, which does not carry the force of law, reflects growing discontent within the Republican Party over President Trump’s handling of the conflict and a rising death toll among U.S. service members engaged in the operations.
GOP Reps. Tom Barrett (Mich.), Warren Davidson (Ohio), Thomas Massie (Ky.) and Brian Fitzpatrick (Pa.) joined every Democrat in supporting the resolution. These are the same Republicans who supported a House war powers resolution in June.
Massie told CNN’s Brianna Keilar on Wednesday evening there was “more support” among House Republicans to call on the Trump administration to remove U.S. troops from the conflict.
“I think you will see more Republicans come on board to war powers resolutions if we bring them up again, and I’d be happy to vote on one every day, but I don’t think we need to,” he said. “We’ve already passed a concurrent resolution in the House and in the Senate.”
Democratic Rep. Pramila Jayapal (Wash.), who sponsored the measure, called the resolution a “vote of conscience” in remarks on the House floor Wednesday morning.
“This is a vote that requires us to find the strength to do what is right for the American people, and to send the clearest, even stronger message to this president of the United States that the United States Congress, the House of Representatives, is reasserting our authority over war,” she said. “This war must end.”
The Senate failed to advance a similar measure out of committee on Thursday, a day after Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) announced that Democrats would force a vote on a war powers resolution.
“Every senator will have to make a choice,” Schumer said in Wednesday floor remarks. “You cannot claim to support the troops while leaving them trapped in war with no mission and no end. You cannot call it a victory while the battlefield keeps expanding, and you cannot hide the wounded and call it peace.”
Senators voted mostly along party lines on this resolution, with only GOP Sen. Susan Collins (Maine) and Democratic Sen. John Fetterman (Pa.) crossing the aisle with their votes.
