The House on Thursday approved a Democratic-led war powers resolution aimed at restricting President Trump's military operations in Iran, with four Republicans providing the decisive votes.
On Wednesday, Trump participated in a dignified transfer ceremony for three service members killed in Jordan and Iraq.
House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Brian Mast (R-Fla.) held up photographs of U.S. service members killed in the war during floor debate.
"This operation is bringing reckoning for the hundreds of times Iran has attacked and killed people of the United States of America."
Hours after the House vote, Senate Democrats moved to advance a war powers resolution of their own and fell short, 47-49.
