The United States Senate is set to vote on a bipartisan resolution aimed at limiting President Donald Trump's authority to continue military action against Iran without congressional approval. The measure would require the withdrawal of military forces from hostilities involving Iran unless Congress authorizes further action. While most Democratic senators are expected to support the resolution, its overall passage remains unlikely.
The vote comes as military strikes between the United States, Israel, and Iran continue. Lawmakers have raised concerns about the president launching attacks without prior approval from Congress, though the administration maintains it has complied with legal notification requirements. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has argued that previous presidents from both parties have similarly acted without formally accepting the constitutionality of the War Powers Resolution.
Even if the resolution passes the Senate, it would still need approval from the House of Representatives and would likely face a presidential veto. Overriding such a veto would require a two-thirds majority in both chambers, making the measure's enactment uncertain as the conflict unfolds.
