A joint resolution to authorize the use of military force against the Islamic Republic of Iran if the President determines that the Islamic Republic of Iran is planning or conducts an attack against any former, current, or incoming United States Government official or senior military personnel.

This joint resolution authorizes the U.S. President to use military force against Iran if they determine Iran is planning or carrying out attacks against U.S. government officials (including former, current, or incoming officials) or senior military personnel. It directly affects U.S. officials who face credible threats, such as former cabinet members and military leaders. The key mechanism requires the President to make a formal determination before authorizing force, expanding the scope of existing authorization to include threats against former officials. The resolution cites Iran's history of plotting attacks on U.S. officials, including specific examples like former Secretaries of State Pompeo and Hook. It does not impose new protections but provides a legal basis for military action in response to identified threats.
