As we've reported, President Trump's decision to strike Iran has drawn mixed reaction on Capitol Hill, but

根據我們的報導，川普總統決定打擊伊朗，這在國會山莊引起了不同的反應，但是

some fear this war could carry political risks for Republicans in November's midterm elections.

有些人擔心這場戰爭可能會在十一月的期中選舉中，為共和黨帶來政治風險。

Several domestic issues are already top of mind for voters, including health care and affordability.

幾個國內議題已經是選民最關心的重點，包括醫療保健和可負擔性。

Democrats are now restrategizing about how to change the balance of power in Congress.

民主黨現在正在重新制定策略，思考如何改變國會的權力平衡。

Joining us now is Democratic Congresswoman Susan Del Bene.

現在加入我們的是民主黨國會議員蘇珊·德爾·貝內。

She represents Washington State and is also the chair of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee or the D Triple C.

她代表華盛頓州，同時也是民主黨國會競選委員會，也就是 D Triple C 的主席。

Congresswoman, thank you so much for joining us.

Just to get started, let's get your reaction to this war, as the president has called it, a war in Iran, which he initiated without congressional approval.

為了開始，我們想聽聽您對這場戰爭的反應，就像總統所說的，這是一場在伊朗發動的戰爭，而他是在未經國會準許的情況下發動的。

Well, we should all be clear that Iran has been, you know, their regime has been violent, repressive of their own people, has spread terrorism around the world.

嗯，我們都應該清楚，伊朗一直以來，你知道，他們的政權一直對自己的人民實施暴力鎮壓，並在世界各地散播恐怖主義。

So, absolutely, there has been great concern about Iran for a long time.

所以，絕對地，長久以來大家對伊朗都非常關注。

But if the president, if members of his administration want to take action, they have to come to Congress.

但是，如果總統，如果他的政府官員想採取行動，他們必須來國會。

There needs to be a justification, an explanation of why they need to move.

必須有一個理由，一個解釋為什麼他們需要採取行動。

And so these preemptive strikes that they have taken, we have no information of why, what was the sense of urgency, and

所以，這些他們採取的先發制人打擊，我們不知道原因，不知道為什麼這麼緊急，而且

In fact, the first briefing that I will get will be tomorrow afternoon, long after these strikes took place four days in.

事實上，我收到的第一次簡報要到明天下午，那時候這些打擊已經發生四天了。

The president has shown repeatedly that he's not interested in getting congressional approval for these kinds of actions.

總統一再表明，他對這類行動尋求國會準許不感興趣。

When the US And Israel struck Iran in June, when we went after Maduro, Congress was not involved, nor did they approve.

當美國和以色列在六月打擊伊朗，當我們對付馬杜羅時，國會沒有參與，也沒有準許。

What can Congress do to be a limit on the executive branch as was designed in the Constitution.

國會能做些什麼來限制行政部門，就像憲法所設計的那樣。

This is where Congress needs to stand up.

這就是國會需要站出來的時候了。

Republicans in Congress who are in the majority in the House and the Senate, have been blindly loyal to the president.

國會裡的共和黨人，他們在眾議院和參議院佔多數，一直盲目效忠總統。

They refuse to do their jobs as members of Congress and stand up and take a vote, take a vote on things that are critically important to our communities, to our country.

他們拒絕做好國會議員的職責，站出來投票，就我們社區、我們國家至關重要的議題進行投票。

And absolutely having a vote on authorization for use of military force is required.

而絕對需要對動用軍力的授權進行投票。

And we should be demanding that in a bipartisan way.

我們應該以跨黨派的方式來要求這件事。

But unfortunately, we have Republicans who, again, are just a rubber stamp for the president and refuse to stand up.

但不幸的是，我們看到共和黨人，他們又一次，只是總統的橡皮圖章，拒絕站出來。

Even some Democrats, though, are not on board with the War Powers Resolution.

不過，即使是一些民主黨人，也沒有支持《戰爭權力決議》。

Well, I think actually, again, coming to Congress asking for authorization, if folks want to support a particular action, because A case has been made, then people can vote.

嗯，我認為實際上，再次回到國會請求授權，如果大家想支持某項行動，因為已經提出了理由，那麼大家就可以投票。

The president needs to come to Congress requesting an author for use of military force.

總統需要來國會請求授權使用武力。

And then people based on the information that's provided can make their decision.

然後大家可以根據提供的資訊做出決定。

He cannot move without coming to Congress.

And he campaign talked about preventing and ending forever wars over and over and over.

而且他競選時不斷、不斷、不斷地說要阻止並永遠結束戰爭。

He has broken the promises to the American people, whether it is on this, whether it's on lowering prices.

他對美國人民食言了，無論是關於這件事，還是關於降低物價。

People across the country are outraged because they want a Congress that will stand up for them and they're tired of broken promises.

全國人民都非常憤怒，因為他們想要一個能為他們挺身而出的國會，而且他們厭倦了失信。

They want folks who are going to work for them and address the issues facing the American people.

他們希望有人能為他們工作，並解決美國人民面臨的問題。

We don't know yet how long this war will drag on, if it will be a forever war.

我們還不知道這場戰爭會持續多久，是否會是一場永遠的戰爭。

Pete Hegseth said clearly in no uncertain terms that this will not be that kind of a conflict.

皮特·海格塞斯明確且毫不含糊地表示，這不會是那種衝突。

The president said it could go on several weeks.

Republicans, though, are praising this action.

不過，共和黨人正在讚揚這項行動。

President Trump's decision to launch this decisive action against Iran is the single most important decision of his presidency.

川普總統決定對伊朗採取這項決定性的行動，是他總統任期內最重要的決定。

I think he laid out powerfully and effectively why he is taking this action.

我認為他有力且有效地闡述了他為何要採取這項行動。

He is taking this action because the government of Iran is a profound and malign influence.

他採取這項行動，是因為伊朗政府是一個深遠且惡意的影響。

They have been the leading state sponsor of terrorism for 47 years.

他們是 47 年來主要的恐怖主義國家贊助者。

They have, over that time, killed nearly 1,000Americans.

在這段期間，他們殺害了近 1,000 名美國人。

They provide more than 90% of the funding for Hamas.

他們提供了哈瑪斯 90% 以上的資金。

Clearly, many Republicans support some Democrats have not been as critical as you are.

顯然，許多共和黨人支持，一些民主黨人並沒有像你一樣批評。

But even if this resolution passes, the president still has to sign it.

但即使這項決議通過，總統還是得簽署。

Well, again, Congress has the power to declare war.

嗯，再說一次，國會擁有宣戰的權力。

So if Senator Cruz feels like this was the right thing to do, then that case needs to be made.

所以如果參議員克魯茲覺得這是正確的做法，那麼這個論點就需要被提出來。

We have not seen data supporting the need for an imminent strike.

我們還沒看到任何數據支持需要立即開戰。

We have not seen data supporting why such military action needed to be taken at this time.

我們還沒看到任何數據支持為何此刻需要採取這樣的軍事行動。

we need to know what the objectives are and we need to know what the long term exit strategy is.

我們需要知道目標是什麼，也需要知道長期的撤離策略是什麼。

None of that has been provided by the administration.

Those are the questions we have and we'll have going forward.

這些是我們現在以及未來都會有的疑問。

You will be briefed tomorrow by members of the administration.

明天將會有政府官員向你們簡報。

But tomorrow is also primary day in Texas.

Well, it's primary day in Texas and in North Carolina, important areas.

嗯，德州和北卡羅來納州今天都是初選日，這些都是很重要的區域。

And you know, let's be clear, Republicans know that they are losing across the country the broken promises to the American people.

而且，我們必須說清楚，共和黨知道他們正在全國各地因為對美國人民的食言而失利。

And so they tried to redraw the maps in Texas.

所以他們試圖在德州重新劃分選區。

But we still have opportunities to pick up seats.

So we have primaries happening in important districts like in Texas 15 and 35, where we have opportunities to flip districts.

所以我們在德州第15選區和第35選區這些重要選區都有初選，我們有機會贏回這些選區。

We have, we only need three more seats to take back the majority in the House of Representatives.

我們只需要再贏三個席次，就能重新拿回眾議院的過半數。

Voters are turning out and again, they want folks are going to stand up for them.

選民們正在踴躍投票，而且，他們想要那些會為他們挺身而出的人。

They want folks who are not rubber stamps for Donald Trump but are standing up for our communities, are coming to Congress to do their work.

他們想要那些不是川普總統的橡皮圖章，而是會為我們的社區挺身而出、到國會來做他們工作的人。

This will be the first step we'll see in Texas and in North Carolina, where we have swing districts, opportunity to take back the majority.

這將是我們在德州和北卡羅來納州看到的關鍵第一步，那裡有我們有機會贏回多數席次的搖擺選區。

How does this impact this war with Iran, impact Democratic strategy?

這場戰爭對伊朗有什麼影響，對民主黨的策略又有什麼影響？
