53 House Democrats Vote Against Resolution Reaffirming Iran as Top Terror Sponsor

The resolution passed 372-53, condemning Iran’s support for Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis, with all 53 no votes cast by House Democrats.

  • On Thursday, the U.S. House passed a 372-53 nonbinding resolution sponsored by Rep. Brian Mast, R-Fla., with 53 Democrats voting no.
  • The resolution described Iran as "the world’s largest state sponsor of terrorism" funding Hezbollah, Hamas and the Houthis; it added that Iran "poses a direct and persistent threat to the United States."
  • Among those voting no were all members of the progressive "Squad"—Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar, Ayanna Pressley and Rashida Tlaib.
  • Some Democrats warned clauses claiming Iran harbors al-Qaeda or is a 'direct and persistent threat' could be used as legal pretexts, citing the 2001 AUMF and Article II of the U.S. Constitution.
