Part of The war with Iran

In September the House voted 220 to 204 to direct the president to pull U.S. forces out of the fighting against Iran unless Congress authorizes it. The Senate rejected a similar resolution 49 to 50. Should Congress pass a resolution like this one?

Pass it. Under the Constitution, going on with a war is Congress's decision, so without its vote U.S. forces should leave the fighting, even if shipping through the Strait of Hormuz is still nearly stopped

Don't pass it. As commander in chief, the president should decide whether to keep fighting, even if the fighting goes on for months without Congress voting to authorize it
