Overview
This concurrent resolution urges the President to withdraw U.S. Armed Forces from any ongoing conflicts or hostilities with Iran, or any part of its government or military. It does so based on the War Powers Resolution and requires explicit congressional authorization, such as a declaration of war or specific use of force, for the U.S. to engage in hostilities with Iran. The resolution clarifies that it does not prevent the U.S. from defending itself or its allies from attack, nor does it require the removal of troops engaged in defensive operations. It also ensures that intelligence sharing activities related to Iran will not be affected.
