The Senate passed a bipartisan resolution to limit President Donald Trump’s ability to take military action against Iran in the wake of the airstrike that killed a top commander last month.

Eight Republicans voted in favor of the measure, including Sens. Mike Lee (Utah), Rand Paul (Ky.), Susan Collins (Maine), Todd Young (Ind.), Jerry Moran (Kan.), Lamar Alexander (Tenn.), Bill Cassidy (La.), and Lisa Murkowski (Alaska). They joined every Democrat in the chamber. It passed 55 to 45.
