The Hill: Republican lawmaker on US bombs against Iran: ‘This is not constitutional’

Rep. Thomas Massie (Ky.), one of the most vocal Republicans pushing against American intervention in Iran, posted on the social platform X that President Trump’s bombing of Iranian nuclear sites is unconstitutional.

Massie wanted to introduce a war powers resolution in the House on Tuesday that would prohibit American involvement in Iran.

“This is not our war. But if it were, Congress must decide such matters according to our constitution,” he posted on X on June 16.

Republican Rep. Warren Davidson (Ohio) echoed a similar sentiment to Massie’s in a post on X.

“While President Trump’s decision may prove just, it’s hard to conceive a rationale that’s Constitutional,” Davidson wrote.
