The introduction comes as Trump continues to escalate tensions, warning Iran that ongoing talks are its \u201clast chance\u201d to reach a deal \u201cbefore decapitation.\u201d\n\n\u201cPresident Trump\u2019s illegal war in Iran has been a complete and total disaster that has cost American lives, sent prices skyrocketing, and drained our military stockpiles,\u201d said Hickenlooper. \u201cWe are now meaningfully worse off than we were before the war began, and it\u2019s essential Congress to step in to end it if Trump won\u2019t. We need to get out of Iran and get back to lowering costs for working families.\u201d\n\nTo date, Hickenlooper has voted 13 times to end the Iran War. He has consistently condemned the administration for sidestepping Congress and dragging America into a war with no clear objective \u2013 one that risks American lives, raises costs here at home, and that Americans overwhelmingly oppose.\n\nHe has released video statements in response to Trump\u2019s unhinged press conference and violent Truth Social posts where he threatened to \u201cdestroy a whole civilization.\u201d He has taken to the Senate floor to denounce Trump\u2019s illegal war in Iran and blast the preliminary and now defunct deal that the Trump administration touted in June. In July, Hickenlooper spoke out about President Trump\u2019s efforts to further escalate the war.\n\nA concurrent resolution on Iran war powers has already passed both chambers. The Senate could consider Hickenlooper\u2019s legislation next month.\n\n###", 1, "2026-08-07T06:11:19Z", "2026-08-07T06:12:42Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://www.hickenlooper.senate.gov/press_releases/hickenlooper-introduces-war-powers-resolution-to-end-iran-war/"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.6728740409016609, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
