US Senate strikes symbolic blow against Trump by limiting war powers toward Iran with new resolution ...News

The US Senate has passed a resolution limiting President Donald Trump’s war powers in the case of Iran. The measure would only allow the president authority to strike in the case of self-defense or an imminent attack. Eight Republicans joined Democrats in voting for the measure, which was passed 55-45. The resolution fell short of the two-thirds majority needed to override a presidential veto, meaning this resolution is more symbolic than anything. The president made his feelings on the War Powers Resolution clear on Wednesday when he tweeted that Iran would “have a field day” if his hands “were tied” due to the resolution.
