## Resource

The Iran conflict’s dust has barely settled as Congress grapples with whether the nearly four-month war—costing billions, costing lives, and launched without a formal declaration—was worth it. Lawmakers clash: some call it a catastrophic failure marked by poor communication and regional miscalculations, while others argue the president’s actions secured national safety, even if victory was incomplete. Now, Congress must explain the fallout to voters, replenish military supplies, and ensure the ceasefire holds—while also debating a massive Pentagon funding request. Complicating matters, a deadly airstrike that killed over 160 people is being blamed on faulty intelligence, sparking demands for accountability. Amid these tensions, a fragile deal on Iran’s nuclear program hangs in the balance, leaving lawmakers to wrestle with whether the situation has truly improved—or if they’re just beginning to face the consequences.
