Summary
A push to make Congress decide before U.S. forces fight terrorist groups in the Western Hemisphere. This concurrent resolution would direct the President, under section 5(c) of the War Powers Resolution (50 U.S.C. 1544(c)), to remove United States Armed Forces from hostilities with any presidentially designated terrorist organization in the Western Hemisphere unless Congress has declared war or passed a specific authorization for use of military force. The measure relies on the existing War Powers framework and includes no timelines, phase-ins, or sunset clauses.
