Bill overview
This concurrent resolution urges the President to remove U.S. Armed Forces from any ongoing hostilities against the Islamic Republic of Iran, as required by the War Powers Resolution. It mandates this action by March 30, 2026, unless Congress has formally declared war or authorized the use of military force against Iran. The resolution highlights Congress’s constitutional authority to declare war and notes that such authorization is currently lacking for the current military presence in the region. It also includes provisions to ensure the U.S. can defend itself and its allies from attack and maintain a defensive troop presence.

IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
Directing the President, pursuant to section 5(c) of the War Powers Resolution, to remove the United States Armed Forces from hostilities against the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Congress finds the following:
The Islamic Republic of Iran is the leading state sponsor of terrorism and an adversary of the United States.
The Islamic Republic of Iran seeks to pose a threat to the United States, its Armed Forces, and allies through its ballistic missile program, its sponsorship of terrorist proxy forces, and pursuit of a nuclear weapon.
Congress has the sole power to declare war under article I, section 8 of the Constitution.
Congress has not declared war with respect to, or provided any specific statutory authorization for, hostilities involving United States Armed Forces against the Islamic Republic of Iran.
prevent the United States from defending itself, its Armed Forces, its diplomatic facilities, or allied states from imminent attack;
prevent the United States Armed Forces from maintaining a troop presence in the region for defensive purposes; or
force the removal of United States Armed Forces in the region who are not engaged in hostilities against Iran.
Nothing in this resolution may be construed to influence or disrupt any intelligence, counterintelligence, or investigative activities relating to threats in or emanating from Iran or surrounding countries conducted by, or in conjunction with, the United States Government involving—
the collection of intelligence;
the analysis of intelligence; or
the sharing of intelligence between the United States and any coalition partner, if the President determines such sharing is appropriate and in the national security interests of the United States.
Consistent with section 8(a)(1) of the War Powers Resolution (50 U.S.C. 1547(a)(1)), nothing in this concurrent resolution may be construed as authorizing the use of military force.
