Will Congress ever assert itself on Iran?
The Economist asks whether the US Congress will ever assert itself on Iran policy. The question highlights longstanding frustration that lawmakers have largely ceded authority over Iran strategy, including sanctions and potential military action, to the executive branch. The item is prompting debate about whether Congress will move to reclaim its constitutional role on war powers and Iran policy.
