这些选情胶着的共和党候选人呼吁迅速结束伊朗战争


2026年9月23日 / 美国东部时间上午11:00 / 哥伦比亚广播公司新闻

越来越多在该国竞争最激烈的中期选举中参选的共和党候选人,正敦促特朗普政府结束与伊朗的战争。

这一来自特朗普总统所在政党内部的罕见施压浪潮,恰逢这场战争临近七个月节点,且公众对战争的反对情绪以及对油价上涨的不满,给全美共和党人带来了选举风险。反对声音已不仅限于总统的常规批评者,一些与特朗普立场一致的候选人也呼吁结束这场冲突。特朗普始终坚持其对伊朗战略,同时也暗示有可能升级冲突。

“与伊朗的战争必须结束,而且要迅速结束,”密歇根州联邦参议员候选人迈克·罗杰斯周一在一段视频中说道,他未点名提及特朗普,并辩称“能源成本将会骤降”。

在之前有关伊朗战争的表态中,罗杰斯曾表示应当结束这场冲突,但对特朗普提供了更明确的支持——特朗普今年早些时候曾与罗杰斯一同开展竞选活动。这位参议院候选人今年7月对哥伦比亚广播公司底特律分社表示:“我希望总统能结束这场战争,据我了解他正在这么做”,并提及与伊朗正在进行的谈判。

周一早些时候,艾奥瓦州开放参议院席位的共和党候选人阿什利·辛森议员写道:“这场战争需要以成功且迅速的方式结束。”但就在上周,辛森并未投票支持限制特朗普发动战争权力的战争权力决议案。

根据哥伦比亚广播公司新闻获得的录音,今年6月,获得特朗普背书的辛森在与一名选民的对话中承认,除非“在未来几周内”结束伊朗战争,否则这场战争可能成为“政治负担”。

密歇根州州长共和党候选人约翰·詹姆斯议员周二向记者表示,据当地媒体MLive报道:“伊朗不能拥有核武器,但我始终认为,我们应当动用一切可利用的资源,迅速结束这场战争。”

在毗邻的威斯康星州,共和党州长候选人汤姆·蒂法尼议员周二表示:“我只是认为我们应该撤出伊朗,是时候向前看了。”他辩称美国已经削弱了伊朗的军事力量,因此“是时候回国,处理美国国内的事务了”。

俄亥俄州联邦参议员乔恩·赫斯特德目前正面临民主党前参议员谢罗德·布朗的挑战,为保住席位而奋力拼搏。他向《政治报》表示,“战争需要尽快结束,这样我们才能降低汽油价格。”

当特朗普在2月底首次下令空袭伊朗时,他曾预测这场冲突将持续四到五周,当时绝大多数国会共和党人都支持这一行动。最早的强烈反对声音来自党内长期秉持反干预主义立场的议员,如兰德·保罗参议员和托马斯·马西议员。

缅因州共和党参议员苏珊·柯林斯——这位正在日益蓝化的州争取第六个任期的议员——后来开始在限制特朗普战争权力的决议案上与民主党人投票一致。阿拉斯加州共和党参议员丽莎·穆尔科斯基——特朗普的 frequent 批评者——也加入了她的行列。

随着冲突持续到夏季,油价维持在战前水平以上,且美伊临时休战在7月破裂,越来越多的选民表示不赞成这场战争,并批评其发展方向。

7月底的一项哥伦比亚广播公司新闻民调显示,67%的美国人希望立即结束伊朗冲突,其中包括92%的民主党人、73%的无党派人士和30%的共和党人。

上周,七名众议院共和党人与民主党人一同投票,通过了一项阻止特朗普在伊朗采取进一步行动的决议。自夏季众议院就战争权力问题进行上次投票以来,已有三名新的共和党议员加入了叛逃者行列:南卡罗来纳州的南希·梅斯议员,以及艾奥瓦州的玛丽安妮特·米勒-梅克斯议员和扎克·纳恩议员。

正在密歇根州寻求连任的共和党议员汤姆·巴雷特曾三次投票支持《战争权力法》,并于5月提出了一项限制并逐步结束伊朗战争的决议案。

在这次出人意料的投票后的次日上午,米勒-梅克斯在社交媒体帖子中表示,特朗普“需要向国会和美国人民提出这场战争如何结束的计划”。

“我不会投票支持让我们的士兵陷入无限期战争,让艾奥瓦州民众在加油站支付过高的费用,”米勒-梅克斯写道。

纳恩在X平台的一份声明中表示:“随着谈判窗口关闭,持续的军事行动现在需要国会授权。”

这两位艾奥瓦州议员所代表的众议院选区都是民主党在11月竞选的目标,而米勒-梅克斯自2020年以仅6票的优势首次当选国会众议员以来,一直以微弱优势赢下选举。

伊朗战争对艾奥瓦州这类农业州造成的负担尤其沉重。石油市场动荡导致柴油和化肥价格飙升,给农民带来了压力——其中许多人此前已因去年的贸易战难以向外销售大豆等农作物。

一些共和党候选人已呼吁缓解高油价问题。辛森本周辩称,美国应该暂停柴油出口、暂停汽油税,并设立一个“柴油救助计划”。罗杰斯也呼吁对柴油出口实施限制,并暂停汽油税。

“伊朗战争必须结束以降低成本——但密歇根州的家庭等不起,”罗杰斯在本周早些时候的社交媒体帖子中写道。

尽管如此,特朗普并未表现出任何屈服于压力、寻求迅速解决冲突的迹象,他称伊朗战争是遏制伊朗军事力量的必要举措。上周,他称不断上涨的汽油价格是“我们所做一切的非常低廉的代价”。

尽管近几周美国和伊朗并未直接交火,但特朗普周二为进一步升级冲突留下了余地,称他在与伊朗达成协议还是“摧毁”该国之间“需要做出重大决定”。

近几周来,他预测这场战争可能会在中期选举之后——而非之前——结束。

“我相信我们会在选举后达成协议,因为他们没有理由不这么做,”特朗普周二在联合国大会演讲中表示。“他们在观望我在中期选举中的表现如何。”

2名共和党参议院候选人呼吁随着中期选举临近迅速结束伊朗战争

These GOP candidates in tight races are calling for a quick end to Iran war

September 23, 2026 / 11:00 AM EDT / CBS News

A growing number of Republican candidates in the country’s most competitive midterm contests are pushing the Trump administration to bring the war with Iran to a close.

The rare burst of pressure from within President Trump’s own party comes as the war nears the seven-month mark, and as public opposition to the war and frustration with rising energy prices pose electoral risks for Republicans nationwide. The pushback has extended beyond the president’s usual critics, with some Trump-aligned candidates calling for an end to the conflict. Mr. Trump has stood by his Iran strategy and has also suggested escalation is possible.

“The war with Iran needs to end, and end quickly,” Michigan Senate candidate Mike Rogers said in a video Monday that didn’t mention Mr. Trump by name, arguing “energy costs will plummet.”

In his prior comments on the Iran war, Rogers had said the conflict should be brought to an end but offered more explicit support for Mr. Trump, who campaigned with Rogers earlier this year. The Senate hopeful told CBS Detroit in July: “I want the president to wrap it up, and my understanding is he’s doing just that,” pointing to ongoing negotiations with Iran.

Earlier Monday, Rep. Ashley Hinson — the Republican candidate for Iowa’s open Senate seat — wrote that “the war needs to be brought to a successful and immediate end.” But last week, Hinson did not vote to support the war powers resolution to limit Mr. Trump’s authority to wage war.

In June, the Trump-endorsed Hinson acknowledged in a conversation with a voter that the Iran war could turn into a “political liability” unless it’s wrapped up “by the next couple of weeks,” according to a recording obtained by CBS News.

Rep. John James, the Republican nominee for Michigan governor, told reporters on Tuesday, according to local outlet MLive: “Iran cannot have a nuke, but I’ve always said that we need to use every resource at our disposal to bring this war to an end quickly.”

In neighboring Wisconsin, Republican gubernatorial candidate Rep. Tom Tiffany said Tuesday: “I just believe that we should be exiting Iran, that it’s time to move on.” He argued the U.S. has degraded Iran’s military, so it’s “time to come home, take care of business here in America.”

And Ohio Sen. Jon Husted, who is fighting to hold on to his seat amid a challenge from Democratic former Sen. Sherrod Brown, told Politico the “war needs to come to an end as quickly as possible so that we can lower gas prices.”

When Mr. Trump first ordered strikes on Iran in late February, launching what he predicted would be a four- or five-week conflict, the vast majority of congressional Republicans backed the move. Some of the loudest dissents came from longstanding members of the party’s anti-interventionist wing like Sen. Rand Paul and Rep. Thomas Massie.

Republican Sen. Susan Collins of Maine — who is fighting for a sixth term in an increasingly blue-leaning state — later began voting with Democrats on resolutions to rein in Mr. Trump’s war powers. She was joined by GOP Sen. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, a frequent Trump critic.

As the conflict stretched into the summer, keeping oil prices elevated above prewar levels, and as a temporary U.S.-Iran truce collapsed in July, a growing share of the electorate voiced disapproval with the war and criticized its direction.

One late July CBS News poll showed 67% of Americans wanted the Iran conflict to end immediately, including 92% of Democrats, 73% of independents and 30% of Republicans.

Last week, seven House Republicans voted with Democrats on a resolution to block Mr. Trump from taking further action in Iran. Three new GOP lawmakers had joined the list of defectors since the House’s previous war power votes over the summer: Rep. Nancy Mace of South Carolina and Reps. Mariannette Miller-Meeks and Zach Nunn of Iowa.

Republican Rep. Tom Barrett, who’s running for reelection in Michigan, has voted in favor of the War Powers Act three times and also introduced a resolution to limit and wind down the Iran war in May.

In a social media post the morning after the surprise vote, Miller-Meeks said Mr. Trump “needs to present a plan to Congress and the American people for how this ends.”

“I will not vote to keep our soldiers in an open-ended war, with Iowans paying too much at the pump,” wrote Miller-Meeks.

Nunn said in a statement on X: “With the negotiating window closed, sustained combat operations now require congressional authorization.”

The two Iowans represent House districts that Democrats are targeting in November, and Miller-Meeks has a history of winning elections by razor-thin margins since she was first elected to Congress in 2020 by just six votes.

The Iran war has also been especially taxing on agricultural states like Iowa. Oil market turmoil has caused diesel and fertilizer prices to soar, putting pressure on farmers — many of whom were already struggling to sell crops like soybeans abroad due to last year’s trade wars.

Some Republican candidates have pushed for relief from high energy prices. Hinson argued this week the U.S. should pause diesel exports, suspend the gas tax and create a “diesel relief program.” Rogers has also called for diesel export restrictions and a gas tax suspension.

“The war in Iran needs to end to bring costs down — but Michigan families can’t afford to wait,” Rogers wrote in a social media post earlier this week.

Still, Mr. Trump has not shown any signs that he will bend to the pressure and seek a quick resolution to the conflict, calling the Iran war a necessary move to curb Iran’s military. Last week, he called rising gas prices a “very inexpensive price to pay for what we’ve done.”

While the U.S. and Iran haven’t directly struck each other in recent weeks, the president left the door open to further escalation on Tuesday, saying he has a “big decision to make” between cutting a deal with Iran and seeking to “annihilate” the country.

And in recent weeks, he has predicted the war could end after — not before — the midterms.

“I believe we’ll make a deal right after the election because it doesn’t make sense for them not to,” Mr. Trump said in an address to the United Nations’ General Assembly on Tuesday. “They’re waiting to see how I do in the midterm election.”
