Sen. Jon Husted voted against a bipartisan Iran war-powers resolution that called for an end to hostilities. Husted said he wants the war to end but argued Iran must not win; Sherrod Brown criticized Husted’s vote.
The Senate rejected a House-passed resolution calling for an end to the Iran conflict, with the vote reported as 50-49. Jon Husted voted against it and said he wanted the war to end, but argued that an Iranian victory could give Iran control of the Strait of Hormuz and keep gas prices high.
Sherrod Brown, Husted’s Democratic opponent, said Husted had voted 14 times to continue the war and released an updated video of those votes. The article also reports calls for an immediate end to the war from Michigan Senate candidate Mike Rogers and Iowa Senate candidate Ashley Hinson, and describes opposition to the conflict from Sens. Tim Kaine and Rep. Warren Davidson.
