Senate Passes Bipartisan Measure Urging Trump to End Iran War or Seek Approval
The U.S. Senate approved a 50 to 48 resolution calling on President Donald Trump to stop the war with Iran or seek congressional authorization to continue military operations. Four Republicans joined Democrats in backing the measure, making it the most significant bipartisan rebuke yet of Trump’s Iran policy.
The vote marks the first time since the 1973 War Powers Act that both chambers of Congress have approved a resolution directing a president to end an armed conflict. While the resolution is not clearly legally binding, it signals growing unease in Congress over the war’s continuation.
The conflict began nearly five months ago without lawmakers’ approval, which is at the center of the current dispute between the White House and Congress. The resolution now adds pressure on Trump to either halt the fighting or come back to Congress for authorization.
