The U.S. Senate rejected a War Powers resolution to limit President Trump's military authority against Iran by a 47-53 vote. This marks the fourth failed attempt to constrain the executive branch as a 60-day legal deadline for congressional authorization approaches.

Left-leaning outlets like The New Republic frame the vote as Republicans "killing" efforts to rein in a "war of choice," while right-leaning sources like Fox News describe it as a rejection of a "Democrat attempt" to curb executive authority.
