US House votes to halt Iran war, in rebuke to Trump.

US House votes to halt Iran war, in rebuke to Trump. All right, everyone. Let's continue to showcase what's happening right now on the House floor as we have lawmakers. continuing to speak right now after they just passed the War Powers Resolution. They're there training the Lebanese armed forces. They're fine.

 This is not what it's about. If you read the War Powers Resolution, uh, uh, section 5C, you'll see it's very clear that it is in writing in

The aw of the War Powers Resolution, War Powers or Act, or we must understand and not confuse, but I want to share a so-called uh. 

 andilled Amal and her colleague Zana were reporting devastation in southern Lebanon when an Israeli drone struck her car near them, killing two civilians.


 Amalnd Zanab sought shelter in a nearby building. But Israel then struck the building, trapping them under the rubble. But it gets worse. It gets


 When the rescued medical workers finally arrived at the scene to rescue Zanab, they came under Israeli fire before they could rescue Amal.


They were directeded from returning to the site for hours. Mr. Speaker, Amal was dead by the time her body was recovered, over six hours later. AL is

 only one victim of many of the Israeli military's deliberate and discriminatory bombings and targeting even of journalists in Lebanon. Israel has


 skilled 250 journalists and media workers across Lebanon, Palestine, Yemen, and Iran. Our country should not be sharing intelligence according to the strikes with the


military that hunts and kills journalists for sport. We must end the US support for this invasion. With that, Mr. Speaker, I yield three minutes.


 Toy Good Colleague and one of the co-sponsors of the resolution, uh, the mygentlemanrom Illinois.


 The gentleman from Illinois is recognized for three minutes.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Again, I want to rise to point out the hypocrisy of those who would claim to care about our children.


while turning a blind eye to the scale of child suffering inflicted by Trump and Netanyahu's unlawful, unaccountable


military operations in Lebanon. And yes, I did say Trump and Netanyahu's military operations. While Netanyahu may be


dropping the bombs, those operations are blessed by Trump, a nd the bombs are provided courtesy of the United States

 government. Israeli executed US-approved strikes have killed more than 3,400

consolidate their power and profit, and stay in power. And my colleagues in Congress have enabled their abuses. They have watched children die, whether it's
in Palestine, in Iran, in Lebanon, and they've shrugged off requests for action because it's complicated. What What's

Complicated about this? It's not. The president of the United States is waging an unlawful war, aiding and abetting Israel to violate US international law.

and it's making his friends rich and himself richer. All while children are starving, they're suffering, and they're dying. It's not complicated. It's

 actually grotesque. Bottom line, whether it's Lebanon, Gaza, or Iran, the United States and Israel are violating US and

 international law. And this Congress has failed to stop them. But impunity cannot.

complicity, and unlawful military operations and wars. And let me end by saying this.

 Let's make sure I look at you, my colleague here on the right. We cannot bomb our way to peace. True safety is

not realized at the end of a barrel of a gun, by a bomb, or via a chokehold of suppression or oppression. I want to
I urge my colleagues to support this war powers resolution, a nd I would also encourage you to join bBlockthe bombs act. With that, I yield back.


The gentleman from Illinois yields back.

 Gentleman's Room Michigan reserves. The chair reminds members to direct all remarks to the chair. The gentleman from Florida is recognized.


. Recognized myself. Mr. Speaker, I hope my colleague is not gonna leave. I would love to speak to you as well.

 I have a serious question for you. If you want to approach a mic, the question's for you. I mean, if you need other people to answer for you, then it's what it is.


It's my time, but the gentleman from Florida controls the time. My understanding is that you want to help Lebanese civilians.


 I want to make sure that we are no longer using our authority, our bombs, our resources to bomb children. That's what


Iant to do. I want to make sure that money is going to healthcare, housing, education, the things that you're concerned about. I'll yield you back in a moment, as I'm reclaiming.

 So the United States armed forces that are training the laugh, who are fighting

 Hezbollah, fighting Hezbollah, who's killing children there, killing civilians. And I yield you some time.

Would you like to see them?

He's having a different debate here, but let me come back to what the congresswoman just mentioned to you. If you look at the legislation that Congresswoman introduced


Clearly, under section 5C, it shows you that you don't want to hear an answer. That's

 tsecondsis cause you want to be able to make up your own answers. Yeah, that's right. That's right.

 So they want to go back. They don't want to talk about Hezbollah. Still, no mention of Hezbollah from our colleagues over there.

They don't want us to talk about the support the United States armed forces are giving to the left to combat Hezbollah because they're not acknowledging them. And apparently they

don't want to see Israel killing Hezbollah, even though it's Hezbollah that is killing Israeli children,

Israeli adults, Israeli elders firing. I gave them the count of rockets, UAVs, casualties, and drones. Gave them the count.

No mention of it whatsoever. I'm going to yield some time to my colleague, Mr. Miller, here. Four minutes, please. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.


Gentlemen are recognized for four minutes. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Thank you, Mr.

Chairman. I rise in opposition to Agecon Res 84, but like most of my colleagues, whether they'll admit it or not, I am a
little confused. The United States, to my knowledge, doesn't have any troops in Lebanon. In fact, the last time American service members were deployed in Lebanon

 was 1984. Even though the gentle lady from Michigan believes that the US is the root of all evil, the United States


 It is playing a vital role in advancing peace, security, and stability in Lebanon as we speak. Just a couple of days ago, President Trump


brokered a pause to further defensive Israeli military action in southern Lebanon. And the US State Department has hosted several rounds of historic peace talks, as we've currently been seeing.

Regardless of what the gentle lady from Michigan will tell you, the greatest threat to Lebanon remains the Iranian regime and its terrorist proxy,


 terrorist proxy, Hezbollah, not the United States and not Israel, as that country has come out more of the gentle lady's mouth than the United States. And

 I believe that's who she's seeking to remove from Lebanon. But if my colleagues on the other side actually cared about the people of Lebanon, which


 It's clear they don't; they would cheer on the elimination of these bloodthirsty terrorists, not advancing meaningless resolutions to denigrate American foreign policy only to embolden them.

For decades, Iran has used Hezbollah to project power throughout the Middle East. In the process, Hezbollah has weakened the Lebanese state and

Colleagues, demands, this is a serious topic. We will debate

It's respectfully and deliberately. Is the gentleman from Michigan making a motion to take down Mr. Speaker? I am.

That's a direct attack on my character.
