Senate blocks bid to curb Trump’s Iran strikes
TL;DR Summary
The Senate rejected a Democratic measure to limit President Trump from ordering further strikes on Iran, a setback for war-powers advocates. The 48-47 vote included four Republicans breaking with their party. Democrats plan to push a similar resolution led by Sen. Tim Kaine, while Trump has threatened a veto, meaning a two-thirds override would be needed in both chambers.
