Senate Republicans block war powers act after Trump pressure

Download

Senate Republicans have blocked a war powers resolution that was opposed by President Trump. Two GOP senators reversed their earlier votes of supporting the legislation, which would have limited President Trump’s ability to conduct further attacks on Venezuela. After Senators Josh Hawley and Todd Young flipped, Vice President Vance cast the tie-breaking vote to defeat the resolution. Hawley and Young heard directly from the president and top administration officials, who they say offered assurances of seeking congressional approval before any military action in Venezuela.
