The Senate's decision to reject the war powers resolution came swiftly, shortly after the US president mentioned the possibility of bombing Tehran. The vote was close, with 53 votes against and 47 in favor, and all senators participated in the vote, although the procedure remained open. The ruling underscores continuing tensions between the US administration and Iran.
