Show full summary
- Families and service members: U.S. service members assigned to command, coordinate, participate in the movement of, or accompany Israeli forces in Lebanon would be ordered withdrawn within 7 days if Congress does not authorize the action.
- Executive branch: The measure would limit the President’s ability to keep forces engaged in Lebanon without a congressional declaration or statute by invoking the War Powers Resolution.
- Congress and oversight: It asserts Congress’s sole power to declare war and uses section 5(c) of the War Powers Resolution to direct a presidential withdrawal.
- U.S.-Israel operations: Activities described in the resolution as supporting Israel’s air campaign in Lebanon are treated as introductions of U.S. forces and would cease absent congressional authorization.

Remove U.S. forces from Lebanon
If adopted by both chambers, this concurrent resolution would direct the President, under section 5(c) of the War Powers Resolution, to remove United States Armed Forces from hostilities in Lebanon that lack congressional authorization. The President would have to end U.S. participation not later than 7 days after adoption unless Congress enacts a declaration of war or a specific law authorizing the use of force. The resolution treats assigning U.S. personnel to command, coordinate, move with, or accompany foreign forces that are engaged in, or face imminent hostilities, as "introducing" U.S. forces. This would limit U.S. military involvement in Lebanon until Congress provides explicit authorization.
