The US House of Representatives passed a resolution limiting Trump's power to use force against Iran.

On June 4th, Jinshi reported that the Republican-controlled U.S. House of Representatives voted to halt the U.S. war against Iran, diverging from President Trump on this unpopular foreign conflict that is increasingly burdening the American people economically. The resolution passed 215 to 208, with four Republican members joining all Democrats in crossing party lines to vote in favor. This suggests that concerns about the war are starting to permeate Trump's own party. The resolution mandates that Trump withdraw U.S. troops from hostile actions against Iran unless Congress formally declares war or authorizes the use of military force against the Middle Eastern country. However, the resolution does not compel Trump to completely end the conflict and is largely symbolic, as the bill still requires passage by the Republican-controlled Senate, and Trump retains the option to veto it during the signing process. Earlier reports indicated that when asked to define a ceasefire, U.S. President Trump stated, "In that region (Iran), a ceasefire means that the fighting and firing have become more moderate. That's true. The ceasefire there is very different from ceasefires in other regions."
