Outside of Congress, public sentiment in America is also showing unease over the conflict and its financial ramifications.
A nationwide AP-NORC poll, conducted between July 23 and July 27, found that 64% of Americans believe the war with Iran has not been worth fighting.
In an earlier poll from Reuters/Ipsos, which surveyed 1,262 American adults across the country over June 18 to 22, just 24% of Americans thought that the war with Iran was worth the costs.
On July 21, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was grilled by the Senate Appropriations Committee over the $37.5 billion cost of the Iran war.
The death of 18 American service members during the conflict has also prompted strong reactions, with lawmakers demanding an immediate end to the hostilities. These simmering issues pose a threat to the Republicans ahead of the November midterm elections.
