Senate Republicans reject war powers resolution after Trump berates them at Capitol meeting
· KRGV (NBC 5)
Senate Republicans voted late Wednesday to reject a war powers resolution aimed at limiting President Trump's military actions in Iran, following a contentious meeting where Trump criticized GOP senators for their opposition. The vote, which failed 47-50-1, came after Trump berated Louisiana Senator Bill Cassidy, one of four Republicans who supported the measure. Cassidy later received a briefing from the White House and switched his vote against the resolution. This decision highlights ongoing tensions between Trump and Senate Republicans, particularly as they navigate election-year issues and Trump's recent reversal on a housing bill that had bipartisan support.
