民主党参议员克里斯滕·吉利布兰德推动美军从伊朗撤军的提案再度失败，仅有少数共和党议员跨党派支持该法案

尽管有报道称美军弹药日渐耗尽、汽油价格飙升，且外界担忧战事缺乏明确目标，但参议院共和党人仍为总统唐纳德·特朗普在伊朗战事中留出了操作空间。
共和党人周四再次否决了另一项要求美国立即从伊朗撤军的战争权力决议案。民主党人已十余次尝试说服足够多的共和党同僚反对这场已持续五个月的战争，但均以失败告终。
来自纽约州民主党参议员克里斯滕·吉利布兰德的最新提案与上周的类似提案一样宣告失败，仅有少数参议院共和党议员跨党派投票支持结束这场战争。

共和党议员中唯一曾加入民主党阵营、随后又改变立场的是路易斯安那州共和党参议员比尔·卡西迪，他曾与特朗普发生激烈争执，并要求就伊朗局势进行情况通报。
他最终获得了通报会，随后也转变了投票立场，他承认自己的投票曾被用作“获取相关信息的筹码”。尽管如此，他并未完全支持当前的战事，而是以《国王的人马》为例，说明局势和政治并非非黑即白。
“这是一个渐进的过程，”卡西迪说，“我们目前所做的一切都带有渐进性、模糊性和不确定性，但我们正努力找到出路。我自己也在摸索前行。”

但他在伊朗地面驻军问题上态度坚决。
“如果要派遣地面部队，从定义上讲，国会就必须就此宣战，仅此而已，”卡西迪说。
最新投票结果出炉之际，有关美军弹药持续减少的报道在国会引发震动，五角大楼和战争部长皮特·赫格西特也在呼吁增加国防预算。

一直对这场战争持谨慎态度、但迄今仍未脱离特朗普阵营支持民主党决议案的北卡罗来纳州共和党参议员汤姆·提利斯表示，“显然，这令人担忧”美国的弹药储备正在减少，但他反驳称，就此问题举行的闭门情况通报会或可缓解各方担忧。
“当然，如果弹药长期短缺并影响作战战略，那么我们理应将其列为优先事项，”提利斯说。
当被问及是否已获得充分通报时，提利斯回答：“没有。”
弹药问题一直是伊朗战争期间的一大关切点，随着上周新一轮空袭的展开，这一问题再度成为地区战略讨论的焦点。
例如，战略与国际研究中心周一发布的一份报告显示，中东地区的新一轮战事已使用于拦截来袭炮弹和无人机的爱国者导弹和萨德拦截弹的库存，从战前的2330枚和452枚分别降至759枚和234枚。

“我认为有相当确凿的信息表明，美军弹药短缺，这不是军方的错，”康涅狄格州民主党参议员理查德·布卢门撒尔说，“特朗普仓促发动这场战争，没有明确的可实现目标，也没有规划如何开展作战行动。”
“未能规划必要的弹药储备规模，这一致命失误完全是总司令的责任，”他补充道。

War powers resolution fails as Senate Republicans stand by Trump on Iran
July 30, 2026 1:19pm EDT / Fox News
Sen Kirsten Gillibrand’s effort to force withdrawal failed as only a small cohort of GOP senators crossed the aisle
By Alex Miller Fox News
Despite reports of waning munitions, spiking gas prices and concerns of no clear objectives moving forward, Senate Republicans are still giving President Donald Trump wiggle room in the war in Iran.
Republicans again blocked another war powers resolution to force an immediate withdrawal of America’s military might from Iran on Thursday. Senate Democrats have tried and failed to convince enough of their Republican colleagues to consistently buck the war over a dozen times as it stretches into its fifth month.
The latest effort from Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., failed along similar lines as last week’s effort, where only a small cohort of Senate Republicans crossed the aisle to end the war.

One Republican who did join Democrats, but has since reversed course, is Sen. Bill Cassidy, R-La., who got into a shouting match with Trump and demanded a briefing on the situation in Iran.
He got that briefing and has since flipped his vote, which he acknowledged was used as “leverage to get some information.” Still, he doesn’t totally support what’s going on, but used “All the King’s Men” as an example to show that the situation and the politics of it are not black and white.
“It is a gradation,” Cassidy said. “What we’re doing here is a gradation, a murkiness, a vagueness, but we’re trying to see our way through it. And I’m trying to see my way through it.”

But he drew a hard line on ground troops entering Iran.
“If there are ground troops, by definition, there needs to be a declaration of war from Congress on this, period,” Cassidy said.
The latest votes come as reports of munitions continuing to dwindle have reverberated through Congress, and as the Pentagon and War Secretary Pete Hegseth plead for more defense funding.

Sen. Thom Tillis, R-N.C., who has been wary of the war but has so far not broken with Trump to back Democrats’ resolutions, said, “Obviously, it’s concerning” that the nation’s munitions stockpile is dropping, but countered that a closed-door debriefing on the matter could sate concerns.
“And of course, if they are chronically low and affecting war strategy, then we should make it a priority,” Tillis said.
When asked whether he had been adequately briefed, Tillis said, “No.”
Munitions have been a concern throughout the war in Iran, and with renewed strikes starting last week, they are again back at the forefront of the conversation about the strategy in the region.
A report released Monday from the Center for Strategic and International Studies found, for example, that renewed fighting in the Middle East found that Patriot and THAAD interceptor missiles, which are used to thwart incoming projectiles and drones, had dwindled from prewar inventories of 2,330 and 452, respectively, to 759 and 234 missiles.

“I think there’s pretty solid information that our military is short on munitions, not their fault,” Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., said. “Trump launched this war impulsively, without a clear set of achievable objectives, and planning for how to conduct it.”
“The basic failure to plan the amount of munitions that would be necessary is a fatal failing that is directly the responsibility of the commander in chief,” he continued.
