Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and other Democratic senators held a news conference shortly after the 55-45 passage of the Iran War Powers Resolution. Senator Schumer told reporters that it was a “rare day” in the Senate and congratulated the bipartisan support for the resolution. President Trump had said he planned to veto the resolution that aims to stop the president from use of military force against Iran without congressional approval. Senator Tim Kaine (D-VA), author of the resolution, said the government owed it to U.S. troops and their families to give “careful deliberation” of war and cautioned President Trump to not veto the resolution. close
