共和党挫败了参议院民主党人试图阻止唐纳德·特朗普总统在政府实际采取任何行动之前就将军事行动引向美国本土的企图。
民主党未能推进一项前瞻性的战争权力决议，该决议将限制特朗普对古巴动用军事力量的能力——古巴距离佛罗里达州海岸仅约90英里。
这一动议的导火索是特朗普近期发表的言论，称美国在伊朗的战事结束后，将对这个岛国采取行动。

“我这辈子一直在听美国和古巴的事——美国什么时候才会动手？我真的很荣幸能拿下古巴，能有这份荣誉，”特朗普在3月份说道。
这项由弗吉尼亚州民主党参议员蒂姆·凯恩提出的决议，将要求美国从古巴境内或周边撤军，并将“使用美国海岸警卫队和其他武装部队部门对古巴实施封锁或隔离”视为敌对行为，此类行动需要国会批准。
佛罗里达州共和党参议员里克·斯科特提出动议，阻止该法案在参议院全体议员投票。他的赌注获得了成功，不过肯塔基州共和党参议员兰德·保罗、肯塔基州共和党参议员米奇·麦康奈尔和缅因州共和党参议员苏珊·柯林斯与几乎所有参议院民主党人一起推动了投票。仅有宾夕法尼亚州民主党参议员约翰·费特曼反其道而行之，支持搁置这项决议。
尽管如此，在美国深陷伊朗战争之际，特朗普尚未对古巴采取任何行动。

凯恩提出的战争权力决议，标志着民主党在约束特朗普在中东的权限方面的努力出现了短暂偏离。到目前为止，共和党已经挫败了五次终止该地区敌对行动的尝试。
当福克斯新闻数字频道问及他是否对除肯塔基州共和党参议员兰德·保罗之外的大多数共和党人保持一致立场感到惊讶时，凯恩说：“这个问题你得去问共和党人他们的立场。”
“有很多人说60天的时间框架对他们来说很重要，”凯恩说，“我们拭目以待，因为在本周末结束的60天截止日期临近之际，我们将就伊朗战争进行投票。”

尽管大多数参议院共和党人仍支持这场冲突，但随着《战争权力决议法案》规定的国会需介入的60天截止日期本周即将到来，支持率日益紧张。
至少有三名参议院共和党议员——缅因州的苏珊·柯林斯、北卡罗来纳州的汤姆·蒂利斯和犹他州的约翰·柯蒂斯——表示，他们不会在60天后延长特朗普在该地区的战争。阿拉斯加州共和党参议员丽莎·默科夫斯基正在起草一项《使用军事力量授权法案》(AUMF)，供议员们就这场冲突进行讨论。

参议院少数党领袖、纽约州民主党参议员查克·舒默辩称，共和党人应该“帮特朗普一个忙”，与民主党人一道阻止特朗普在未经国会批准的情况下对古巴采取未来军事行动。
“如今工薪阶层最不需要的就是再打一场战争，更别提一场发生在美国以南90英里处的战争了，”舒默在参议院议场说道，“共和党人必须在古巴即将到来的灾难变得更糟之前抢先应对，就像他们本应在特朗普的伊朗战争上做到的那样。”

Dem plot to limit Trump war powers on Cuba fails as GOP falls in line with military action abroad
April 28, 2026 5:59pm EDT / Fox News
Republicans stifled Senate Democrats’ attempt to prevent President Donald Trump from bringing military action close to home before any action has actually been taken by the administration.
Democrats failed to advance a forward-looking war powers resolution that would handcuff Trump’s ability to use military force against Cuba, which lies roughly 90 miles from the coast of Florida.
The move was spurred by his recent comments that once the U.S. was finished in Iran, it would make moves on the island nation.

“All my life I’ve been hearing about the United States and Cuba — when will the United States do it? I do believe I’ll be the honor, having the honor of taking Cuba,” Trump said in March.
The resolution, introduced by Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va., would require the removal of forces from within or around Cuba and considers the “use of the United States Coast Guard and other components of the Armed Forces to conduct a blockade or quarantine of Cuba” a hostile act that would require Congress’ approval.
Sen. Rick Scott, R-Fla., moved to block the bill from getting a full vote on the floor. His gamble was successful, though Sens. Rand Paul, R-Ky., Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., and Susan Collins, R-Maine, joined nearly every Senate Democrat to force the vote. Only Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., broke ranks to support tanking the resolution.
Still, Trump has not taken action on Cuba while the U.S. is engaged in the war in Iran.

Kaine’s war powers resolution marked a momentary departure from Democrats’ quest to rein in Trump’s authority in the Middle East. Republicans have so far batted down five attempts to cease hostilities in the region.
When asked by Fox News Digital if he was surprised that most Republicans had stayed in line, save for Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., Kaine said, “You gotta ask Republicans about their position.”
“There are many saying that the 60-day time frame is relevant to them,” Kaine said. “We’ll see that because we’ll have an Iran war vote close to the 60-day deadline by the end of this week.”

Support for that conflict, while still holding out among most Senate Republicans, is growing strained by the day as the 60-day deadline for Congress to weigh in under the War Powers Resolution Act is set to hit this week.
At least three Senate Republicans — Susan Collins of Maine, Thom Tillis of North Carolina, and John Curtis of Utah — said they wouldn’t extend Trump’s war in the region after 60 days. And Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, is working on an Authorization for the Use of Military Force (AUMF) for lawmakers to weigh in on the conflict.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., argued that Republicans should “do Trump a favor” by joining Democrats to block future engagements with Cuba without congressional approval.
“The last thing working Americans need right now is another war, let alone one that’s 90 miles south of the United States,” Schumer said on the Senate floor. “Republicans must get out in front of a looming catastrophe in Cuba before it gets even worse, as they should have done with Trump’s war in Iran.”
