Washington — The Senate on Wednesday rejected a resolution intended to limit President Donald Trump’s authority to conduct military operations against Iran, marking the fourth failed attempt by lawmakers to assert war-powers oversight. Senators voted largely along party lines, with one Republican joining Democrats and one Democrat opposing the measure. The vote comes after a two-week ceasefire agreed last week and follow-up talks in Islamabad that did not secure a longer ceasefire; Democrats pledged to introduce similar measures weekly, while White House officials maintained executive prerogatives. Key figures cited include Sen. Chuck Schumer and Sens. Rand Paul and John Fetterman, and leaders signaled continued floor activity this week.

主张扩大总统战争权力以及某些国防承包商的人,如果总统能继续在无需国会新授权的情况下自主发动军事行动,将从中获益。
