A joint resolution to direct the removal of United States Armed Forces from hostilities within or against the Islamic Republic of Iran that have not been authorized by Congress.
Read twice and referred to the Committee on Foreign Relations.
Summary
The joint resolution orders the removal of United States armed forces from hostilities within or against Iran unless Congress has formally declared war or passed a specific authorization for the use of military force. It applies to all service members currently engaged in the conflict and seeks to enforce the Constitution’s allocation of war‑making power to Congress. The measure is prompted by statements from the Trump administration labeling the operation a "war" despite no congressional approval.
