Rep Rashida Tlaib moves to block US operations in Lebanon but ignores Hezbollah

Amid Democrats’ failed attempts to block President Donald Trump’s military action in Iran, some progressive lawmakers are turning their focus to another target.

Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., recently unveiled a resolution that would prevent Trump from participating in or assisting Israeli military operations in Lebanon absent congressional approval. 

The progressive lawmaker could force the House of Representatives to take up the measure when the chamber resumes session in mid-April.
