Senate Blocks Resolution Limiting Trump’s Iran War Powers

Warnock urged lawmakers not to “sit back” while the president makes decisions about potential conflicts abroad.

Most Republicans disagreed.

The vote largely followed party lines but featured notable defections from both parties.

Republican Sens. Susan Collins, Bill Cassidy, Lisa Murkowski, and Rand Paul voted with Democrats to advance the measure.

At the same time, Democratic Sen. John Fetterman voted with Republicans to defeat it.

Fetterman’s vote proved decisive.
