Bill overview
This bill, the No War Against Iran Act, aims to prevent the United States from engaging in military force against Iran without explicit Congressional authorization. It asserts that Congress holds the sole power to declare war and that existing authorizations (like those related to Iraq) do not permit military action against Iran. The bill clarifies that no federal funds can be used for military force against Iran unless Congress has either declared war or passed a specific law authorizing such action, adhering to the War Powers Resolution. It also includes a provision allowing for the use of force in self-defense of allies and partners with appropriate Congressional authorization.
