The House of Representatives voted to block a war powers resolution introduced by Representative Rashida Tlaib concerning Lebanon. The resolution aimed to direct President Trump to remove all U.S. armed forces from Lebanon within seven days of passage, as Congress had not authorized these hostilities. Democratic leaders, including House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, opposed the measure, stating there were no U.S. service-members in combat operations in Lebanon and favoring an alternative resolution. Critics argued that Tlaib's resolution, which did not mention Hezbollah, could aid the group and potentially hamstring U.S. military operations. The final vote was 324-92-2 against the resolution, with a majority of Democrats joining nearly all Republicans to vote it down. Representative Brian Mast criticized the resolution's omission of Hezbollah, while Representative Max Miller linked Tlaib to the group, leading to heated exchanges. The debate turned personal when Rep. Max Miller, R-Ohio, linked Tlaib to Hezbollah, accusing her of associating with "butchers." Tlaib asserted that her resolution would only affect U.S. forces actively engaged in hostilities, a claim Republicans disputed.
