Dem plot to limit Trump war powers on Cuba fails as GOP falls in line with military action abroad
Senate Democrats led by Sen. Tim Kaine failed to advance a resolution that would limit President Donald Trump's ability to use military force against Cuba. The effort was preemptive, as no military action has yet been taken, though Trump has made statements suggesting future moves against the island nation. Republicans largely opposed the resolution, with only a few joining most Democrats in supporting it.
- ▪Sen. Tim Kaine introduced a war powers resolution to block unauthorized U.S. military action against Cuba, including blockades using the Coast Guard.
- ▪President Donald Trump previously stated he believed he would be the one to 'take Cuba,' fueling concerns about potential military action.
- ▪The resolution was blocked by Sen. Rick Scott, with most Republicans opposing it despite support from some GOP members like Rand Paul and Mitch McConnell.
- ▪No military action has been taken against Cuba, but the debate coincided with ongoing U.S. military engagement in Iran.
- ▪This marked a shift for Democrats, who have primarily focused on limiting Trump's war powers in the Middle East rather than in the Western Hemisphere.
