Landsman (D-OH), who was one of 4 House Democrats to vote No on the Massie-Khanna Iran war powers resolution earlier this month, said today, "Our War Powers Resolution will be ready for a vote soon. I will vote for Congressman Meeks’ War Powers Resolution if it comes to the floor. I urge every one of my colleagues to vote Yes. The United States Armed Forces have accomplished remarkable tactical and strategic successes. It’s now time to be done."
