Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer announced that Democrats will force weekly votes on resolutions to end the war in Iran.
Senate Majority Leader John Thune expressed optimism that the war in Iran is nearing its end as a War Powers Act deadline looms. The shift signals GOP reluctance to hold a formal war authorization vote while Democrats prepare to force weekly votes to terminate the conflict.

Center-leaning outlets like NBC News focus on Schumer’s pledge to force weekly votes against what he labels "Operation Epic Failure," while Fox News highlights the Senator's decision to allow arms sales to Israel despite his vocal criticism of the Iran conflict. Left-leaning Common Dreams frames the mass arrests at Schumer’s Manhattan office as a grassroots demand for him to move beyond "cheap talk" and actively block military aid.
