Senator Alsobrooks Votes Yes AGAIN to Advance Iran War Powers Resolution

May 19, 2026 WASHINGTON, DC – Senator Alsobrooks (D-Md.) released the following statement after voting for Senator Kaine’s Iran War Powers Resolution. The resolution was agreed to 50-47. “Finally, on the eighth attempt, the U.S. Senate has voted to advance a war powers resolution to end this costly war of choice. “Gas prices continue to skyrocket, families can’t afford their groceries, and the economy is failing. “This President’s focus is elsewhere: on his ballroom, his helipad, his arch, or his slush fund. “Now, the Senate needs to pass the resolution – I urge all of my Republican colleagues to join me in voting to end this war, hold this President accountable, and lower costs for hardworking American families.” ###
