The U.S. Senate declined by a vote of 47-53 to bring a war powers resolution to the floor. The resolution was “to direct the removal of United States Armed Forces from hostilities within or against the Islamic Republic of Iran that have not been authorized by Congress.
” The vote last night was largely along party lines, with Sen. John Fetterman of Pennsylvania the only Democrat to vote against it. On the other side of the aisle, Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky was the only Republican to vote yes. This is the third time the Senate has failed to advance a resolution to rein in Trump’s military action against Iran, which critics say needs congressional approval. Democrats have said they will continue bringing war powers resolutions to the floor until Republicans agree to hold public hearings on Iran. “Whatever you think about this war, it should be unacceptable to all of us that we have not had a single public hearing,” Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., who pushed the resolution, said on the Senate floor before the vote. He said Americans deserve to hear “the justification and the end game for this war.”
