S 1061 United States Senate · 118th Congress

A bill to prospectively repeal the 2001 Authorization for Use of Military Force.

This bill repeals the 2001 Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF), ending its legal authority for future U.S. military operations. It takes effect on July 20, 2025, meaning all military actions after that date would require new congressional approval instead of relying on the 2001 law. The repeal directly affects the executive branch's ability to authorize military force without fresh legislative action, shifting the requirement for authorization to Congress. This change does not impact past military operations conducted under the 2001 AUMF.
