Congress. To declare war needs act of Congress. The last time Congress declared war was WW2. Many Presidents get around this to engage in military action by not offically declaring war.

Only Congress, according to the Constitution, has the power to declare war. Under the War Powers Act the president can send troops into battle, but then he must inform Congress, within 90 days, of his action and get their approval. Presidents usually use the Commander-in-Chief power (Article II, Section 2) in the Constitution as authority to send troops into a fighting situation.
