Senate Rejects Limits on Trump’s Iran War PowersThe Senate voted 53-47 against a resolution requiring Congress approval for military action after Trump’s Iran strike.
- The Senate declined a measure aimed at curbing President Trump’s authority to conduct war against Iran without congressional consent.
- Trump ordered a strike on Iran’s nuclear sites, citing imminent threats despite disputed evidence.
- Republicans defended the president’s unilateral decision under constitutional authority, while some Democrats called for congressional debate.
- The vote reflects a broader pattern of Congress delegating war powers to the executive branch amid debate over the strike’s effectiveness.
To go on offense against another nation or an entity... it is too big a decision for any one person.— Senator Tim Kaine said this in a speech on the Senate floor while advocating for congressional authority in matters of war powers.
