Democratic Senator Kirsten Gillibrand launched a scathing attack on President Donald Trump's Iran policy, accusing him of dragging the United States into an "illegal" war that has increased costs for American families. Speaking on the Senate floor ahead of a vote on her War Powers Resolution, Gillibrand argued that the conflict has driven up gas prices, strained household budgets, and diverted billions of taxpayer dollars to military operations instead of domestic priorities. She cited data from the Joint Economic Committee, claiming New York families have paid hundreds of dollars more for gasoline since the conflict began. The resolution seeks to require the withdrawal of U.S. armed forces from hostilities with Iran unless Congress explicitly authorizes military action.
