Republican Representative Thomas Massie filed an impeachment on Tuesday resolution accusing Defense Secretary Hegseth of continuing U.S. military action against Iran without congressional authorization. The measure contains eight articles and also cites U.S. operations in Venezuela and Yemen. As a privileged resolution, Massie can force a House vote within a prescribed period, compelling Republicans to take a position on Hegseth's wartime conduct; passage is unlikely in a GOP-controlled Congress. The House has previously voted on measures to curb executive war powers on Iran and will again consider a War Powers resolution this week.
