Fetterman Sides With GOP to Block Iran War Limits, Defying Democrats
Sen. John Fetterman is openly clashing with his own party over the Iran war, breaking ranks in ways that are raising new questions about where he stands politically.
The Pennsylvania Democrat voted with Republicans to block efforts limiting President Donald Trump’s military actions against Iran, even as most Democrats pushed to rein in the conflict. According to the Washington Post, he was the only Democrat to oppose one key Senate resolution.
That divide comes as tensions inside the Democratic Party grow over Israel and Iran policy, with many Democrats shifting toward a more critical stance on military involvement, according to Vox.
