Failed

Summary

This concurrent resolution would direct the President to terminate U.S. Armed Forces' participation in hostilities against the Islamic Republic of Iran unless Congress issues a declaration of war or a specific authorization for the use of military force.

Show full summary
  • Reasserts Congress's war power and oversight. It conditions any continued hostilities involving Iran on a declaration of war or a specific statutory authorization from Congress.
  • Limits presidential authority while preserving self-defense. The text allows the United States to defend itself from imminent attack but otherwise restricts the President from continuing hostilities without congressional approval.
  • Protects intelligence work and partnerships. It explicitly says intelligence collection, analysis, and sharing with coalition partners related to threats from Iran are not affected when the President deems them appropriate.
