A group of 4 Republicans joined all of the Democrats in voting to pass the anti-Trump war powers resolution.
Led by Democrats, lawmakers voted 215-208 to withdraw troops from using military force against Iran absent congressional authorization.
Ousted Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., Warren Davison, R-Ohio, Brian Fitzpatrick, R-Pa., and Tom Barrett, R-Mich., were the four Republicans to oppose the president and support the war powers resolution.
The vote is symbolic, considering that President Trump is expected to veto it, if it ends up on his desk.
