Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
This concurrent resolution directs the President to withdraw U.S. Armed Forces from hostilities with Iran under the authority granted to Congress by the War Powers Resolution. The measure would require removal of military personnel engaged in operations against Iran, with a narrow exception allowing forces to remain only if needed to defend the United States or allied nations from immediate attack, and only if the President follows required War Powers Resolution procedures. The resolution does not prevent future military action if Congress formally declares war on Iran or passes a specific authorization for use of military force. This is a concurrent resolution, which expresses the will of Congress but does not require the President's signature to pass. The legislation was introduced in September 2026 and referred to the House Committee on Foreign Affairs.
