Its path through Congress
- Introduced
- In Committee
A concurrent resolution is how the House and the Senate settle something they do together, such as a budget plan or a joint session. It is adopted once both chambers agree to it, and that puts it into effect; it is not a law, so it does not go to the President.
What this bill would do
This concurrent resolution directs the President to remove United States Armed Forces from hostilities against the Islamic Republic of Iran or its government and military. This directive includes the removal of potential ground forces used for combat or occupation. However, the resolution does not prevent the United States from defending itself, its diplomatic facilities, or its allies from imminent attack. It also allows for a troop presence in the region for defensive purposes and does not interfere with intelligence activities. Finally, this resolution does not constitute an authorization for the use of military force.
