Senate repeals Iraq War authorization after decades.

The US Senate has voted 66-30 to repeal the war authorizations that justified the 1991 Gulf War and the 2003 Iraq War. The action is largely symbolic as US combat operations against Iraq ended more than a decade ago, and if enacted, the repeals would have no effect on any ongoing military operations. Rather, supporters argued it was important for Congress to reassert its constitutional authority to start and end wars. The measure has bipartisan support in the House, but House Speaker Kevin McCarthy has not yet committed to a vote.
