Iowa Republicans Flip on Iran War | Irvine News

Two Iowa Republicans flip their stance on Iran war authorization, joining Democrats in demanding congressional approval — a bold move as midterms loom and fuel prices soar. Air Force vet Zach Nunn, who recently campaigned with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, now insists no more open-ended wars, while Army vet Mariannette Miller-Meeks calls for a clear exit strategy to bring troops home and ease costs. Both face tough races, and the bipartisan vote reflects mounting frustration over America’s longest-running conflict — which has already claimed 18 U.S. lives, including two Iowans. Meanwhile, over 400 former national security officials are questioning whether Hegseth broke the Hatch Act during his political appearance.
