Trump Wins Senate Vote, Cassidy Draws Red Line on Iran

Trump Wins Senate Vote, Cassidy Draws Red Line on Iran

The U.S. Senate voted on a plan to pull out troops from Iran.

Most Republican senators said no, so the plan failed.

A senator named Bill Cassidy, who had once helped stop the plan, also said no after learning more about the situation.

He still worries about the war but says he will not let U.S. soldiers go to Iran without Congress saying it’s okay.

The vote happened after five months of fighting, and people are worried about running out of ammo and the cost of fuel.

President Trump still wants to keep the troops there.

The Senate’s decision shows that many Republicans support the president’s plan.

The debate shows how hard it is to change a war plan once it’s started.

The vote also shows that even senators who used to oppose the war can change their minds after new information.
