The president should get approval from Congress before taking further military action against Iran.
The U.S. carried out military strikes on Iran in 2025 without a vote in Congress. This would require approval by Congress before further U.S. military action against Iran, other than responding to an attack.

We can fund it using your taxpayer dollars. It's called the defense budget and the illegal war on Iran.
