The U.S. Senate rejected a War Powers Resolution led by Senator Tammy Duckworth that sought to curb President Trump's military actions against Iran. The 47-52 vote largely followed party lines, with notable defections from Sens. Rand Paul and John Fetterman.

The New Republic and NBC News frame the outcome as Republicans blocking a Democratic effort to limit or end U.S. military action in Iran, while Conservative Institute foregrounds Fetterman siding with Republicans. Several outlets, including TIME and The Washington Post, note that Fetterman was the only Democrat to vote against the resolution.
