  "summary": "The US Senate narrowly rejected a Democratic-led resolution on Thursday aimed at curbing President Donald Trump's war powers in Iran. The vote, 50-49 along party lines, was largely symbolic, as the Trump administration has not altered its policy in response to previous war powers votes. Four Republicans joined Democrats in voting against the resolution, while most other Republicans aligned with the president. Democrats view the vote as an attempt to hold Republicans accountable for their stance on the unpopular conflict ahead of the November midterm elections, where they are struggling to maintain their slim congressional majorities. The Senate has considered Iran war powers resolutions 14 times, voting in favor only twice, since the start of the conflict on February 28.",
