\"The House of Representatives approved a resolution that would force President Trump to seek consent from Congress before taking new military action against Iran.\
\
The move comes nearly a week after President Trump greenlighted a U.S. drone strike that killed a top Iranian general and led to increased tensions with Tehran.\
\
The nonbinding war powers resolution was approved in a mostly party-line vote of 224-194. Only three Republicans and one independent joined Democrats to pass the measure. Eight Democrats opposed it.\"
