By Patricia ZengerleWASHINGTON, April 14 (Reuters) - The U.S. Senate will vote as soon as Wednesday on the latest Democratic-led effort to rein in President Donald Trump's war powers, and party leaders promised on Tuesday to keep bringing up such resolutions as long as the Iran war continues."Forty-five days into this war, Congress has been sidelined because our Republican colleagues refuse to take a strong stand against this war and duck it completely because they're afraid of Trump," Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer of New York said in a Senate speech on Tuesday.
