Congress Checks Military Action Against Iran

Congress just passed a historic resolution limiting U.S. military action against Iran, 50-48, with surprising Republican support and all Democrats on board — a major check on presidential war powers. This follows a similar House move, signaling a growing push to rein in executive military authority. Meanwhile, the Pentagon is demanding $80 billion to replenish war supplies, while President Trump meets with GOP senators over his Iran deal — including a controversial $300 billion proposal for rebuilding Iran that’s drawing sharp criticism. Democrats, who’ve long advocated for war powers votes, finally secured the Senate majority — a sign of shifting congressional dynamics. And with Defense Secretary lobbying for massive defense spending increases tied to the conflict, hundreds of billions could soon be on the table in the ongoing budget debate.
