Did congress just pass a bill taking away Obamas powers between now and the end of his term?

No they did not, although some Republicans (who are the majority) have said they believe he has too much power and they would like to limit it. But whatever they believe, there is no bill that could take away a president's powers, since the US Constitution mandates that each branch is separate and has its own set of duties. Congress could try to overturn an executive order, or obstruct one of the president's priorities, but they cannot take away the powers he was given by the Constitution. They can simply disagree with, or try to diminish, how he uses those powers.
