War in Iran Stalls Again | Global News

War in Iran Stalls Again | Global News

Author: The Daily News Now! September 17, 2026 Duration: 1:39

The House just voted a third time to end the war in Iran — a bold move that could force the President’s hand, but he’s expected to veto it anyway. With Democrats united and more Republicans joining the chorus, lawmakers are pushing back against the President’s military actions — even as voters feel the economic fallout, including soaring gas prices and inflation fueled by disrupted oil supplies. Despite bipartisan momentum, the Constitution’s War Powers Act remains a battleground: Congress holds the power to declare war, but the President wields command authority — and he’s not budging. As midterms loom, this conflict is becoming a political flashpoint, with polls showing most Americans think the war isn’t worth the cost — and the price tag? Already over $38 billion, with inflation set to climb another half a percentage point by 2027.
