WASHINGTON – The U.S. House voted 296-133 to repeal the war powers given to President in 2001 to invade Iraq. Proponents argued the open-ended authorization was passed hastily in the heat of emotions after the of 9/11 attacks in 2001 and that, 20 years later, had outlived its usefulness. Authorizations for war need to be subject to Congressional review, proponents said. The issue goes next to the U.S> Senate.
