Directing the President, pursuant to section 5(c) of the War Powers Resolution, to remove United States Armed Forces from hostilities with Iran.
This concurrent resolution directs the President to withdraw United States Armed Forces from any hostilities against Iran. It specifically invokes the War Powers Resolution, mandating this removal unless Congress formally declares war or provides specific authorization for military force against Iran. The bill clarifies that it does not prevent the U.S. from acting in self-defense, maintaining a defensive troop presence in the region, or continuing intelligence activities related to threats from Iran.
