Republican lawmakers back President Trumps Iran strikes, despite Democratic concerns over mission creep and lack of clear goals. Senate and House votes on war powers measures are set for Wednesday and Thursday, respectively. GOP leaders argue the president has necessary authority, while some senators express reservations about ground troops. Lawmakers express worries over interceptor stockpiles and potential strain on supplies from other regions. The operation is described as massive and fast-moving, with no plans for extra funding from Congress. Arab allies may step up, but expanding targets like Iranian proxies is a possibility. Most Republicans want to avoid micromanaging the commander-in-chief, but some may change their stance if action is prolonged or involves boots on the ground.
