US lawmaker introduces bill to limit Trump’s power to strike Iran

Congressman Thomas Massie, a member of Trump’s Republican Party, has introduced a measure that would require the US president to seek the approval of Congress before attacking Iran.

The bill orders Trump to “terminate” any attacks on Iran that are not authorised by lawmakers.

Yesterday, a similar measure was introduced in the Senate.

While the proposed legislation would likely face a presidential veto if Congress approves it, advocates say the effort could add to the pressure Trump is facing from opponents of war with Iran.
