New York Times: “A first-term House Republican facing a difficult re-election fight introduced a bill on Thursday that would authorize continued U.S. military operations in Iran through the end of July, but with strict limits, implicitly rejecting President Trump’s claim that the war has ended.”
“The legislation by Representative Tom Barrett, a Michigan Republican, was the latest indication of growing uneasiness among Republicans on Capitol Hill about the war, which Mr. Trump began with no authorization from Congress and which has dragged on far beyond his initial timetable. Unhappiness with the war has further darkened an already grim political environment for the G.O.P. as it grasps to keep its majorities.”
