Limit US strikes on Iran without Congressional approval

Sponsor: Sen. Tim Kaine (D-VA)
01 · What this bill does

Plain English.

A war-powers joint resolution forcing the Senate to vote on whether US strikes on Iran require congressional authorization. Rejected 46-51 in late April 2026 — one of eight Iran war-powers resolutions on the Senate floor that year.

02 · Why it matters

The stakes.

46-51. The same lobby-money pattern visible across every 2026 Iran resolution: the senators with the largest pro-Israel PAC totals voted to allow the strikes; the senators with the smallest totals voted to require congressional authorization.

  • Seventh of eight Iran war-powers votes in 2026.
  • Compare the roster to S.J.Res. 184 a week later — nearly identical splits.
  • Iran war-powers votes have become the cleanest single-issue test of lobby alignment.
