HCONRES 86 United States House · 119th Congress

Directing the President, pursuant to section 5(c) of the War Powers Resolution, to remove United States Armed Forces from hostilities with Iran.

This bill directs the President to withdraw United States military forces from any hostilities involving Iran. It invokes a specific provision of the War Powers Resolution, allowing Congress to order such a removal. The directive includes an exception, permitting forces to remain if necessary to defend the U.S. or an ally from an imminent attack, but only if the President follows certain reporting procedures and without new explicit congressional authorization for military force against Iran. This action would directly affect the President's authority regarding military deployment and the U.S. Armed Forces currently operating in the region.
