House Republicans have scrapped a planned vote to restrict President Donald Trump's war powers in Iran, according to reports from Axios and CNBC.
The move comes amid ongoing tensions between the U.S. and Iran, with Trump recently claiming that Iran has agreed not to pursue nuclear weapons, though he warned the country could reverse its position.
The abandoned vote had been seen as a potential constraint on Trump's ability to escalate military action in the region without congressional approval.
With the measure no longer on the table, the administration retains broader latitude in its approach to Iran.
The decision reflects the broader political challenges Trump faces in securing legislative support for his foreign policy initiatives.
House Republicans have been divided on how to address Iran, with some members advocating for a more restrained approach and others aligning with the president's hardline stance.
