Bill overview
This joint resolution urges the President to remove U.S. Armed Forces from any ongoing hostilities against the Islamic Republic of Iran unless Congress has explicitly authorized such actions through a declaration of war or a specific authorization for use of military force. The resolution emphasizes Congress’s constitutional power to declare war and argues that current authorizations do not cover the conflict with Iran. It references the War Powers Resolution to ensure Congressional oversight and a full public debate before any further military engagement.
