Chapter 1: What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Corova Coleman. A bipartisan majority in the Republican-led House has voted to end the war with Iran. NPR's Claudia Grisales reports this was the clearest rebuke yet of President Trump's handling of the conflict.
Chapter 2: What recent developments occurred in the Iran war debate?
