A joint resolution directing the removal of United States Armed Forces from hostilities in the Republic of Niger that have not been authorized by Congress.

SJRES 44 is a congressional resolution directing the removal of U.S. military forces from Niger within 30 days, as their presence there lacks explicit congressional authorization. It applies directly to over 1,000 U.S. troops stationed in Niger since 2013, who have engaged in hostilities with terrorist groups without a formal war declaration or specific statutory approval. The resolution cites the War Powers Resolution and other laws requiring Congress to authorize military action, noting that existing authorizations (like the 2001 AUMF) do not cover Niger. It mandates the President to withdraw forces unless Congress later passes a new authorization. This is a procedural measure focused on constitutional compliance, not a new policy.
