Senate Republicans blocked a Democratic effort to limit President Trump's war powers in Iran for the fourth time since the conflict began. The vote fell short as Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania joined all Republicans in opposing the measure, marking a significant break with his party.

This marks the latest in a series of attempts by Democrats to constrain presidential authority over military action in the Middle East. The repeated failures highlight the challenges faced by the minority party in influencing foreign policy decisions, particularly on matters of national security.

While Republicans successfully maintained their position, the vote revealed growing unease within the party about the administration's approach to the conflict. Fetterman's defection suggests some Democrats may be reconsidering their stance as the war continues, though the overall partisan divide on military powers remains stark.
