Senate rejects Iran War Powers Resolution for sixth time, 50-47, hours before 60-day legal deadline

The Senate votes 50-47 against a War Powers Resolution that would have required President Trump to end military operations in Iran within 30 days. For the first time, Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) joins all 47 Democrats in voting for the resolution. But the measure still falls three votes short of the 51 needed to pass. The vote comes hours before the legal 60-day deadline of May 1. (Bloomberg Gov, Apr. 30, 2026)
