国会领导人放弃投票授权战争权力，允许白宫继续军事行动
Read, Watch or Listen
Washington — Republican congressional leaders declined to press for a vote authorizing force as the 60-day War Powers deadline arrived on May 1, allowing the White House to continue military operations without formal congressional approval. The administration argues a ceasefire that began in early April suspends the statutory countdown required by the 1973 law. On May 1 Senate leaders had already left town after rejecting Democratic motions to halt the conflict, and Senate Majority Leader John Thune said he would not schedule an authorization vote. House Speaker Mike Johnson stated "We are not at war," while Iran's UN envoy responded to a joint letter from six Arab states, accusing them of facilitating strikes and defending Iran's actions as self-defense.

白宫通过保留对军事行动的决定权并避免国会立即授权而受益，并引用四月的停火来证明不寻求正式的《战争权力法》批准是正当的。
国会和法定监督机制在 5 月 1 日的《战争权力法》最后期限前，辩论或授权动用武力的能力受到削弱，在此情况下限制了立法部门对行政部门发动战争的制约。
