I support an alternate War Powers Resolution, H.Con.Res 108, which fixes the issues with today’s resolution and would help stop Americans from becoming engaged in hostilities in Lebanon.
Support an alternate War Powers Resolution that would stop Americans from becoming engaged in hostilities in Lebanon.
Occurrences
We must put an end to forever wars. I stand with the Lebanese people, the government of Lebanon and the Lebanese Armed Forces in their efforts to live peacefully and defeat the terrorist organization Hezbollah, and I stand firmly against any attempt to involve the United States in a war in Lebanon or anywhere else.

Assessments
The evidence shows Lebanon War Powers measures and an alternate or compromise version were pursued in the House during Thompson's current federal term, but the measures were defeated and did not stop U.S. involvement in Lebanon-related hostilities. The record provided also does not establish that Mike Thompson personally wrote, sponsored, voted for, or otherwise materially advanced the alternate resolution. Because both candidate-specific support and policy delivery are not shown, the promise cannot be credited as delivered; effort credit is also not established for Thompson specifically.
On June 4, 2026, the House defeated the Lebanon War Powers Resolution by a 92-324 vote. Contemporary reporting said Democratic leaders were only exploring an alternative or later amendment, not that an alternate Lebanon war-powers measure had been introduced, passed, or otherwise completed. As of June 15, 2026, there is no clear evidence that Mike Thompson delivered on this by supporting a finished alternate resolution that achieved the promised result, but the matter was still active enough that it is better scored as pending than failed.
The evidence shows a Lebanon war-powers resolution was defeated in the House on June 4, 2026, and that Democratic leadership discussed an alternative approach, but it does not show Mike Thompson specifically wrote, sponsored, or materially advanced a resolution that was adopted. That is not enough to count as delivery.
