Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski \u2014 voting in favor of advancing the resolution by Democratic Sen. Tim Kaine, siding with most Democrats. Republican Sen. Rand Paul voted present, and Democratic Sen. John Fetterman voted no.<\/p>\n<p>Just one day earlier, four Republicans <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/senate-house-pass-iran-war-powers-resolution-trump\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">voted yes<\/a><\/span> on a separate House-passed war powers resolution, allowing it to narrowly pass. Those same four GOP lawmakers had\u00a0<span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/senate-iran-war-powers-eighth-vote-trump\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">voted to advance<\/a><\/span> the Kaine resolution in an earlier procedural vote last month \u2014 the first time an Iran war powers resolution had moved forward in the Senate after seven failed attempts.<\/p>\n<p>Kaine&#8217;s resolution would have directed Mr. Trump to &#8220;remove the United States Armed Forces from hostilities within or against Iran,&#8221; unless authorized by Congress.<\/p>\n<p>The measure&#8217;s practical impact was unclear since the president would likely have vetoed the measure even if it passed. The Trump administration has also argued the U.S. is no longer engaged in hostilities with Iran since the two sides entered into a ceasefire. And the administration has said it believes the 1973 War Powers Resolution \u2014 the law that set up a process for Congress to push back on presidential uses of military force \u2014 is itself unconstitutional.<\/p>\n<p>Still, Mr. Trump has publicly and privately vented about the war powers votes, arguing the rebukes from Congress have <a href=\"https:\/\/truthsocial.com\/@realDonaldTrump\/posts\/116802765132974094\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">undermined<\/a> his efforts to negotiate with Iran.<\/p>\n<p>Those frustrations boiled over earlier Wednesday, when Mr. Trump expressed his discontent during a testy lunch meeting with Senate Republicans, CBS News <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/trump-testy-gop-senators-meeting-bill-cassidy\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">previously reported<\/a><\/span>. At one point, the president sternly told Republican Sen. Bill Cassidy of Louisiana \u2014 who had voted in favor of Tuesday&#8217;s war powers resolution \u2014 to sit down. Cassidy told reporters after the meeting that &#8220;[Mr. Trump] raised his voice&#8221; and &#8220;I lost my temper.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Later in the day, however, signs emerged that some of the Senate Republicans who had previously voted to constrain Mr. Trump&#8217;s war powers were reconsidering.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Cassidy was briefed on Iran at the White House by Vice President JD Vance and special envoy Steve Witkoff, the senator <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/SenBillCassidy\/status\/2069955131597058502\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">confirmed on X<\/a>, writing that the conversation &#8220;address[ed] many of my concerns.&#8221; Cassidy voted against advancing the resolution Wednesday night.<\/p>\n<p>And Paul\u00a0voted present on Wednesday, despite voting in favor of the last several Iran war powers resolutions. He <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/RandPaul\/status\/2069953788585071038\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">said on X<\/a> his goal was to &#8220;give the President more space and leverage to negotiate a lasting peace.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;My opinion on the debate over war and executive power has not changed and I have voted that way several times,&#8221; he said. &#8220;But since hostilities seem to be over and the President asked me to give consideration to his negotiating position, I will do so.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Senate Majority Whip John Barrasso, a Wyoming Republican, helped &#8220;seal the deal&#8221; in conversations with some key GOP members, a person familiar with the matter told CBS News.<\/p>\n<p>The back and forth comes after Mr. Trump signed a memorandum of understanding with Iran to extend the two countries&#8217; ceasefire for 60 days and launch talks on Iran&#8217;s nuclear program, aiming to wrap up a war that polling shows most Americans <span class=\"link\"><a
