Senate votes to direct Trump to withdraw troops from Iran conflict; four Republicans break ranks

In a significant bipartisan move, the Senate voted 50 to 48 to direct President Trump to withdraw U.S. troops from conflict with Iran, marking a rare instance where four Republicans defied the administration. This resolution, which passed the House earlier, challenges Trump’s authority as commander-in-chief, signaling a potential shift in Congress’s war powers. The decision underscores growing concern over escalating tensions with Iran and reflects a desire among lawmakers to assert legislative oversight over military actions.
