"Democrats should absolutely be forcing Republicans to vote on stopping this war as urgently as possible, said Andrew O'Neill, national advocacy director at Indivisible."
"Everyone's freaked out, but we didn't have the people here to pass it. ... No point in bringing up a resolution that's going to fail because we have an attendance problem."
Democrats expressed frustration over the lack of a vote on an Iran war powers resolution. Despite efforts to rally support, the resolution failed earlier in a 212-219 vote. Some Democrats are still undecided, and absences among members are causing concern for party leadership. A senior Democrat noted that attendance issues hinder the ability to bring the resolution to a vote, emphasizing the need for full participation to avoid failure.
