Senator Rand Paul was the only Republican to break with his party and vote against Trump's military operations in Iran.
The U.S. Senate failed for the fourth time to pass a War Powers Resolution requiring President Trump to seek congressional approval for military actions in Iran, as the conflict continues to result in U.S. casualties and rising domestic fuel prices.

Most coverage, including Reuters and TIME, reports that the Senate rejected the Iran war powers resolution and that Rand Paul was the only Republican to support it with Democrats. Benzinga emphasizes Paul’s criticism of the conflict’s spending and debt, while Newsmax highlights the Constitution as the reason for his vote.
