Summary

The No Funds for Iran War Act bars the use of any federal money to conduct military force against Iran unless Congress formally declares war or passes a specific authorization. It does allow limited action under the War Powers Resolution or for immediate defense of the United States or its allies, provided the President follows required reporting rules. The measure aims to keep the decision to go to war with Iran in the hands of Congress.
