U.S. Senate Republicans backed President Donald Trump’s military campaign against Iran on Wednesday, voting to block a bipartisan resolution aiming to stop the air war \u200band require that any hostilities against Iran be authorized by Congress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Senate voted 53 to 47 not to advance the resolution, largely along party \u200clines, with all but one Republican voting against the procedural motion and all but one Democrat supporting it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The latest effort by Democrats and a few Republicans to rein in President Donald Trump’s repeated foreign troop deployments, the war powers resolution was described by sponsors as a bid to take back Congress’ responsibility to declare war, as spelled out in the U.S. Constitution.
Opponents rejected this, insisting that Trump’s action was \u200blegal and within his right as commander in chief to protect the United States by ordering limited strikes. They accused supporters of the resolution of endangering \u200bU.S. forces.
“This is not a forever war, indeed not even close to it. This is going to end very quickly,” Republican \u2060Senator Jim Risch of Idaho, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said in a speech against the resolution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The measure had not been expected to succeed. Trump’s fellow Republicans \u200bhold slim majorities in both the Senate and House of Representatives, and have blocked previous resolutions seeking to curb his war powers.
Backers of the resolution said they would not give \u200bup, and even some Republicans who voted to block it said they would press for public testimony from Trump aides about the administration’s Iran strategy, especially if the conflict lasts for weeks, as Trump has predicted.
Debate about Trump’s buildup of military assets in the Middle East, and American and Israeli strikes on Iran has centered on whether Trump is pulling the country into another “forever war” like \u200bthe long conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan.
“Today senators face a choice, stand with the American people who are tired of war in the Middle East, or side with \u200bDonald Trump, who bumbled America into another war most Americans fiercely oppose,” said Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer of New York, a co-sponsor of the resolution.
With control of Congress potentially shifting to Democrats \u200cin November’s \u2060midterm elections, a prolonged Iran war could concern voters. A Reuters\/Ipsos poll released on Tuesday showed that only one in four Americans approved of U.S. strikes on Iran and about half believe Trump is too willing to use military force.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
