The Senate agreed to debate a war powers resolution aimed at limiting President Trump's military actions in Venezuela, with a 52-47 vote reflecting bipartisan concern. The resolution, expected to be voted on next week, would require Trump to seek congressional approval for continued military operations in Venezuela. Five Republicans, including Senators Collins, Young, Hawley, Paul and Murkowski, joined Democrats in supporting the measure, citing a need for congressional oversight after a recent military raid in Venezuela. These Republicans had previously opposed similar resolutions. Trump criticized the Republican senators who sided with Democrats, arguing they were undermining national security. The resolution is a rare assertion of congressional authority over presidential war powers, though its chances of becoming law are slim.
