Dozens of Democrats have voted against a nonbinding resolution in the House that reaffirms Iran as the "largest state sponsor of terrorism." The resolution, put forward by Rep. Brian Mast, R-Fla., passed by a 372-53 vote on Thursday, with all those voting no being Democrats. Two Democrats also voted present.
Existing Designation: Iran has been a U.S. government-designated state sponsor of terrorism since 1984. The resolution did not create a new legal status but reaffirmed an existing one.
For 50+ years the designation hasn't been lifted.
