The Senate passed a House-approved resolution directing an end to U.S. hostilities with Iran. Senate Majority Leader John Thune said Congress would likely vote on any final deal that emerges from the administration's 60-day negotiating window.
foxnews.comThe Senate voted 50-48 on Tuesday to adopt a House-approved Iran war powers resolution directing an end to U.S. hostilities. Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., said he expects Congress would have some sort of vote if the Trump administration strikes a final deal with Iran. He added that he does not yet know whether that vote would come as a resolution or another legislative vehicle.
Thune told reporters that many senators remain anxious to hear more from officials involved in the negotiations. The vote marked a notable escalation in Congress's effort to reassert its role over both the military and diplomatic tracks of the administration's Iran policy.
Lawmakers in both parties have pushed for limits on further U.S. military action against Iran while demanding more information about the memorandum of understanding with Tehran.
Last week Thune told reporters that nuclear components of the deal could trigger congressional notification requirements. U.S. and Iranian officials met last weekend in Switzerland along with representatives from Pakistan and Qatar to discuss terms for a final deal and an end to fighting in Lebanon involving Israel.
