Use a War Powers Resolution to halt the Iran war

Blumenthal supports immediately introducing another War Powers Resolution to stop the war with Iran. He says the conflict should be stopped through diplomacy and that Congress should act now rather than wait for the next session.

Context: The passage reports support for introducing a resolution; it does not say a new resolution has been introduced or enacted. Earlier efforts described in the passage did not legally halt the conflict. Remarks at the November 9, 2026 briefing; report published November 10.
