Senate votes to ignore the Constitution and continue unauthorized war in Yemen

On Tuesday, the Senate killed a bipartisan effort, led by Sens. Mike Lee, R-Utah, Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and Chris Murphy, D-Conn., to end U.S. involvement in the Saudi Arabian war in Yemen, by blocking a motion to discharge their resolution from the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and bring language to the Senate floor.

The resolution was aimed at ending any and all U.S. participation in Saudi and Emirati hostilities towards the Houthi rebels because Congress never authorized it, specifically with this particular conflict.
