The War Powers Resolution (WPR) of 1973 has been a subject of debate regarding its constitutionality. It aims to check the president's power to commit U.S. forces to armed conflict without congressional approval. Critics argue that it infringes on the president's role as Commander-in-Chief, while supporters contend it reinforces Congress's authority to declare war. Ultimately, the WPR has never been definitively tested in the Supreme Court, leaving its constitutionality somewhat ambiguous.
