Bill > HCRes110

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 against Iran, as allowed by section 5(c) of the War Powers Resolution. The War Powers Resolution is a federal law that requires the President to notify Congress within 60 days of introducing U.S. forces into hostilities and to withdraw them unless Congress authorizes their continued use or declares war. This resolution makes an exception for forces needed to defend the United States or its allies from an immediate attack, provided the President follows the notification requirements of section 5(b) of the War Powers Resolution. Essentially, Congress is telling the President to stop military actions against Iran unless there's a formal declaration of war or a specific congressional approval for such military action.
