Senate Democrats have filed legislation that would prevent the U.S. from attacking Cuba without congressional approval. It's a move that comes in response to President Donald Trump’s stated goal of a “takeover” of the Caribbean country. Democrats have repeatedly used war powers resolutions to force debate and votes on Trump’s foreign policy aggressions. Republicans have so far mostly backed the president. The resolution filed Thursday by Democratic Sens. Tim Kaine, Ruben Gallego and Adam Schiff would require the president to remove the military from any hostilities with Cuba. It could potentially receive a vote by the end of the month.
