HCONRES 75 United States House · 119th Congress

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

This bill directs the President to withdraw U.S. military forces from hostilities against Iran within 30 days of February 28, 2026 (the date troops were deployed), unless Congress authorizes continued action through a formal declaration of war or specific statute. It explicitly permits defensive actions, maintains non-combat troop presence in the region, and clarifies that intelligence-sharing activities related to Iran remain unaffected. The resolution does not authorize military force but aligns with the War Powers Resolution's requirement for congressional oversight of military deployments. It directly affects the President and military commanders responsible for implementing the withdrawal.
