Senate rejects 4th attempt to curb Trump's war powers in IranCBSBy Kaia HubbardApril 15, 2026
Washington — The Senate on Wednesday defeated another war powers resolution aimed at curbing President Trump's ability to use further military force against Iran, with Democrats vowing to keep trying to rein in the president.A motion to discharge the measure from committee failed in a 47 to 52 vote, with Republican Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky and Democratic Sen. John Fetterman of Pennsylvania crossing the aisle.It was the fourth time Democrats in the Senate had forced a vote on the issue since the war began on Feb. 28.The resolution, led by Democratic Sen. Tammy Duckworth of Illinois, would have directed President Trump "to remove the United States Armed Forces from hostilities within or against Iran, unless explicitly authorized by a declaration of war or a specific authorization for use of military force." Speaking at a news conference Tuesday, Duckworth said "we cannot let this chaos continue unchecked.""As our troops continue to sacrifice whatever is asked of them, we senators need to do the absolute minimum required of us," Duckworth, a former Blackhawk helicopter pilot, said.The Illinois Democrat said the Senate must vote to "end Trump's illegal war of choice."(more)https://www.cbsnews.com/news/senate-war-powers-vote-iran-tammy-duckworth/
