Bill > HCRes86

This concurrent resolution, passed by both the House of Representatives and the Senate, directs the President to withdraw U.S. military forces from engaging in hostilities with Iran. This action is taken under section 5(c) of the War Powers Resolution, a law that gives Congress the power to end U.S. military involvement in foreign conflicts. The resolution specifies that this withdrawal applies to all hostilities except for forces needed to defend the United States or its allies from an immediate attack, provided the President fully informs Congress about any such defensive actions as required by section 5(b) of the War Powers Resolution. The only exceptions to this withdrawal would be if Congress formally declares war on Iran or provides a specific authorization for the use of military force against Iran.
