The Senate just rejected a symbolic effort to rein in Trump’s Iran war powers—49 to 50—marking the second such vote in two weeks as tensions escalate. A new wave of U.S. airstrikes follows Iran’s missile strike on a U.S. base in Jordan, reigniting a five-month conflict that’s already claimed 18 American lives and over 450 wounded, with thousands dead on the Iranian side. With the war costing over $37 billion and a new $80 billion request on the table, Congress grapples with constitutional limits—Trump’s administration even claims the 1973 War Powers Act is unconstitutional. While the House passed its own ceasefire resolutions, they lack legal force, leaving lawmakers divided over who holds the real power to end the war.
