According to the latest on-site reports, the US House of Representatives passed a resolution for the third time demanding that Trump withdraw US troops from the war against Iran, with seven Republican senators supporting it, an increase from four in a similar vote in July. However, such parallel resolutions have limited legal binding force. Following the House's previous resolution, the Trump administration did not withdraw troops, and the Senate blocked a corresponding plan in July by a vote of 49 to 47. Therefore, the seven votes are more of a political signal of weakening support within the party and are insufficient to change military action. The next step is to see if the Senate follows suit and whether Congress can pass funding restrictions to translate the anti-war stance into a practical constraint.
