War Powers Act?

[bdtex]

I heard somewhere late last night that Pres. Obama sent notice to Congress under the War Powers Act,of his plan to act against ISIS/IS/whatever in Syria and Iraq and that Congress had 60 days to act. Can't find much about that this morning with a Google search. Not sure whether that means Congress has to vote on anything. I'm sure there are Senators and Reps from both sides of the aisle who don't wanna vote on anything. I can think of 2-3 GOP Senators who are possible POTUS candidates who probably definitely don't wanna have to vote one way or the other.

Heard this being discussed last night. The best I remember, he can do it without them, but getting them on board with his actions shows the rest of the world, the nation is united.
