US Senate advances measure to limit Trump's Iran war powers
On May 20, 2026, the US Senate voted 50-47 to advance a war powers resolution that would require President Donald Trump to withdraw US forces from hostilities with Iran or obtain congressional approval for continued military action. This marks the first time such a resolution has moved past procedural hurdles in the Senate, with Louisiana Republican Senator Bill Cassidy joining three other GOP senators in support, though it faces significant obstacles including a likely presidential veto and needing passage in the Republican-controlled House.
