“Congress has the power to slam the brakes on this unwise conflict,” said bill sponsor and Democratic Senator Tim Kaine.
The United States Senate has voted to advance a resolution that could force US President Donald Trump to seek congressional authorization to continue the country's war with Iran.
The vote on a procedural war-powers measure on Tuesday passed by 50 to 47, with four Republicans also voting in favor, according to Reuters.
Policymakers have been arguing that Congress, not the president, should have the power to send troops to war, as spelled out in the US Constitution.
