The House members argue that the Obama administration overstepped its constitutional authority by authorizing the use of U.S. military force abroad without first receiving approval from Congress. U.S. forces have been involved in the campaign against Libyan leader Moammar Gaddafi for 88 days.
Critics argue that Obama violated the 1973 War Powers Resolution by failing to seek congressional approval for the mission.

Even though I doubt anything will come of this, I applaud the members for standing up to unilateral action. This administration has really taken on some of the worst aspects of the Bush years...Patriot Act, copyright law, unilateral decisions...very disappointed.
