华盛顿讯 —— 众议院第三次投票否决了对特朗普总统针对伊朗的军事权力进行制衡的提案,尽管越来越多的共和党人对这场旷日持久的冲突表示担忧。

周四针对民主党限制特朗普当局权限的决议投票结果为212票赞成、212票反对,未达到多数通过门槛。该决议于3月4日首次提出,按照文本内容,总统需在战争开始后30天内将美军从敌对行动中撤出,这场战争始于2月28日。

“我本不想将这项决议提交议会 floor(注:议会全场)表决。我曾希望政府在我提出决议后能够改变方针,并向国会和全国进行充分通报,”新泽西州民主党众议员乔希·戈特海默(Josh Gottheimer)在周三晚间的全场辩论中表示。

戈特海默称,他支持特朗普政府“打击”伊朗政权,但谴责政府没有进行正式通报,让议员们“蒙在鼓里”。

这场战争在5月1日达到了《1973年战争权力决议》规定的关键截止日期。该法案规定,如果国会未批准战争,总统必须在60天后将武装部队从敌对行动中撤出。这一60天倒计时始于3月2日总统向国会正式通报敌对行动之时。

但总统在5月1日通知国会,美国与伊朗之间的“敌对行动”已经“终止”,因为自4月7日双方达成停火协议以来,美伊双方已“没有交火”。政府辩称,停火暂停了60天倒计时。自那以后,随着霍尔木兹海峡周边紧张局势升级,停火协议受到了考验。

周四的投票是众议院在法定截止日期过后首次就此议题进行表决。三名共和党议员——肯塔基州众议员托马斯·梅西(Thomas Massie)、宾夕法尼亚州众议员布莱恩·菲茨帕特里克(Brian Fitzpatrick)和密歇根州众议员汤姆·巴雷特(Tom Barrett)——投了赞成票。缅因州民主党众议员贾里德·戈尔登(Jared Golden)是唯一投反对票的民主党议员。

巴雷特于5月7日提出了一项军事力量使用授权法案,允许特朗普将对伊朗的战争延续至7月30日,但自推出以来仅获得一名共和党共同提案人——内布拉斯加州众议员唐·培根(Don Bacon)。犹他州共和党众议员布雷克·摩尔(Blake Moore)也已表态支持巴雷特的这项授权法案。

“从一开始就有两件事很明确:绝不能让伊朗发展核武器,美国绝不能被拖入另一场无休止的战争,”巴雷特在一份声明中表示,并补充道,国会必须履行“其宪法职责,明确界定任务并设置保障措施和截止日期”。

自众议院3月初首次投票限制特朗普权限以来,相关决议获得了更多支持。第一次投票中,四名民主党议员与除两人外的所有共和党议员一同否决了该决议。4月的第二次投票中,四名民主党议员中有三人放弃了反对立场,不过一名最初支持该举措的共和党议员投了弃权票。

与此同时,参议院已经否决了七次推进民主党战争权力决议的尝试,最近一次于周三失败。但自民主党开始推动该议题以来,又有两名共和党议员倒戈——缅因州参议员苏珊·柯林斯(Susan Collins)和阿拉斯加州参议员丽莎·穆尔科斯基(Lisa Murkowski)。共和党参议员兰德·保罗(Rand Paul)始终与民主党议员投票立场一致。

穆尔科斯基本月早些时候表示打算提出一项军事力量使用授权法案,她称自己投票支持推进最新决议,是因为特朗普政府对这场战争的表述缺乏 clarity(注:清晰性)。

“我们现在的处境与上次就此事投票时不同,”她在提及60天截止日期时说道。

参众两院的民主党人均表示,他们计划持续推动针对伊朗战争的投票,希望最终能获得足够的共和党支持。

“总有一天,而且我相信可能很快,参议院会对总统说:‘停止这场战争’,”弗吉尼亚州民主党参议员蒂姆·凯恩(Tim Kaine)周三表示。“我相信这一天终将到来。”

凯恩承认,即使某项决议最终能送达特朗普总统办公桌,国会也不太可能推翻总统否决权——这需要三分之二的议员支持。但凯恩辩称,此举仍可能迫使特朗普迫于政治压力,放弃对伊朗进一步采取军事行动。

最近几周,国会进步核心小组的近十名议员提出了战争权力决议案,如果他们决定推动,足以在未来数周内迫使多次投票。

“只要共和党议员纵容这场鲁莽、非法的战争,我们就会一直追究他们的责任,”领导国会进步核心小组的得克萨斯州民主党众议员格雷格·卡萨尔(Greg Casar)在一份声明中表示。

Washington — The House voted for a third time against acting as a check on President Trump’s military powers in Iran, even as a growing number of Republicans express concern about the prolonged conflict.

Thursday’s vote on a Democratic resolution to rein in Mr. Trump’s authority was 212-212, falling just short of a majority. Originally introduced on March 4, the measure as written would have directed the president to remove U.S. forces from hostilities within 30 days of the start of the war, which began on Feb. 28.

“I didn’t want to have to bring this resolution to the floor. I had hoped that the administration would have changed course after I introduced it and properly briefed the Congress and the country,” Democratic Rep. Josh Gottheimer of New Jersey said during floor debate Wednesday night.

Gottheimer said he supported the Trump administration “crushing” the Iranian regime, but denounced the administration leaving lawmakers “in the dark” with the lack of formal briefings.

The war passed a critical deadline on May 1 under the War Powers Resolution of 1973, which says the president must remove armed forces from hostilities after 60 days if Congress has not authorized the war. The 60-day clock started once the president sent formal notification to Congress of the hostilities on March 2.

But the president notified Congress on May 1 that “hostilities” with Iran had “terminated” because there had been “no exchange of fire” between the U.S. and Iran since April 7, when both sides agreed to a ceasefire. The administration has argued that the ceasefire paused the 60-day clock. Since then, the ceasefire has been tested as tensions rise around the Strait of Hormuz.

Thursday’s vote was the first time the House has voted on the issue since the statutory deadline passed. Three Republicans — Reps. Thomas Massie of Kentucky, Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania and Tom Barrett of Michigan — voted in favor. Rep. Jared Golden of Maine was the sole Democrat to vote against it.

Barrett introduced an authorization for use of military force on May 7 that would give Mr. Trump until July 30 to continue the war in Iran, though it has gained just one GOP cosponsor — Rep. Don Bacon of Nebraska — since its launch. Republican Rep. Blake Moore of Utah has also signaled support for Barrett’s AUMF.

“Two things have been clear from the very beginning: Iran cannot be allowed to develop a nuclear weapon and the United States of America cannot be dragged into another endless war,” Barrett said in a statement, adding that Congress must exercise “its constitutional role to clearly define the mission with safeguards and a deadline.”

The resolutions have picked up more support since the House’s first vote to rein in Mr. Trump in early March. In the first attempt, four Democrats joined all but two Republicans to kill it. Three of the four Democrats dropped their opposition in the second vote in April, though one of the Republicans who initially supported the effort voted present.

Senators, meanwhile, have rejected seven attempts to advance Democratic war powers resolutions, with the most recent failing Wednesday. But Democrats have picked up two more Republican votes — Sens. Susan Collins of Maine and Lisa Murkowski of Alaska — since they began pressing the issue. GOP Sen. Rand Paul has consistently voted with Democrats.

Murkowski, who said earlier this month she intended to introduce an authorization for use of military force, said she voted in favor of advancing the most recent resolution due to the lack of clarity on the war from the Trump administration.

“We’re in a different place than we were last time we voted on this,” she said, referencing the 60-day deadline.

Democrats in both chambers have said they plan to keep forcing votes on the Iran war, hoping that eventually they will garner enough GOP support.

“There will be a day, and it might be soon, I believe, where this Senate will say to the president, ‘stop this war,’” Sen. Tim Kaine, a Virginia Democrat, said Wednesday. “I believe that day is coming.”

Kaine acknowledged that Congress is unlikely to be able to override a presidential veto, which requires two-thirds support, even if a resolution eventually makes it to Mr. Trump’s desk. But Kaine argued that it could still force Mr. Trump to bow to political pressure and back off from further military action against Iran.

In recent weeks, nearly a dozen members of the Congressional Progressive Caucus have rolled out war power resolutions, enough to force votes for weeks to come, if they decide to.

“We will keep holding Republicans in Congress accountable for as long as they enable this reckless, illegal war,” Democratic Rep. Greg Casar of Texas, who leads the Congressional Progressive Caucus, said in a statement.
