It is the first time the chamber has passed a measure aimed at limiting President Donald Trump’s war powers
The US Senate has, for the first time, passed a resolution directing President Donald Trump to withdraw American forces from hostilities involving Iran.
The Senate voted 50-48 on Tuesday, with four Republicans joining Democrats in support of the measure. The resolution passed the House by a vote of 215-208 earlier this month.
According to AP, the resolution is largely symbolic but reflects growing opposition to the president’s Iran policy.
The vote marked the tenth attempt by Democrats to compel Trump to end US involvement in hostilities in the Middle East. Previous efforts, including one last week, failed to win sufficient support.
