I don’t see how, excluding what he’s already done. Pelosi is Speaker, she can bring up anything she wants.

Just bring it up brought about a knee jerk reaction from the Turks, as we see.

Separation of Powers.

This is a non binding resolution of the House.

He can not order then not to vote on this resolution.

I recall during the Clinton Administration the Republican Congress was going to vote on the same issue.

Clinton begged Hasert not to bring it up for a vote because it would undermine foreign policy with Turkey.

Hasert complied with his request and never brought it up for a vote.
