Ashley Hinson Voted to Keep American Service Members in Trump's Illegal War

Today, Republican Rep. Ashley Hinson voted against the Iran War Powers Resolution, enabling President Trump to continue his illegal conflict that has already claimed the lives of Iowa service members. This failed vote leaves Congress with limited authority to rein in Trump’s military actions as Iowa families face soaring gas prices and rising fertilizer costs. Hinson has maintained steadfast support for Trump’s illegal war in Iran, despite broad oppositionfrom the majority of Americans.

“Ashley Hinson is asking Iowans to promote her while she’s failing to stand for them. She voted today to let Donald Trump keep waging an illegal war without a single check from Congress,” said Senate Majority PAC Press Secretary Christyna Thompson. “There is no version of today’s vote that puts Iowa first. If she’s already neglecting her constitutional duty in the House, why would Iowans trust her with a Senate seat?”

This is not Hinson’s first time backing President Trump’s unpopular agenda. Last May, she voted for President Trump’s devastating One Big Beautiful Bill, doubling down on unpopular policies that delivered the most severe cuts to Medicaid in history and threaten closure of Iowa hospitals. Despite months of data showing that the bill would drive up health care prices and kick thousands off of their insurance, Hinson sided with Trump, leaving Iowans bearing the brunt of the costs.
