Senate rejects resolution to end U.S. involvement in Iran conflict

The Senate rejected a war powers resolution Wednesday to end U.S. involvement in the conflict with Iran, failing 49-50. Republicans Lisa Murkowski, Rand Paul, and Susan Collins voted for the measure, marking the first GOP support in seven Democratic attempts. The Trump administration argues the 60-day War Powers Act deadline no longer applies due to a U.S.-Iran ceasefire agreement.
