Directing the President, pursuant to section 5(c) of the War Powers Resolution, to remove United States Armed Forces from hostilities with Iran.

Plain-English Summary

This bill is a formal directive from Congress telling the President to withdraw U.S. military forces from any active combat or conflict with Iran. It uses a specific legal tool called the War Powers Resolution, a 1973 law that gives Congress the authority to limit or end the use of U.S. military force when Congress has not officially declared war. Section 5(c) of that law is the specific provision that allows Congress to order the removal of troops from hostilities by passing such a directive.

In practical terms, if this bill became law, it would require the President to pull back any U.S. Armed Forces currently engaged in fighting or armed confrontations with Iranian military forces. This would apply to any ongoing military operations, strikes, or direct engagements involving Iran, wherever they may be occurring. The bill does not necessarily address all U.S. military activity in the broader Middle East region — only actions that constitute "hostilities" specifically with Iran.

This bill primarily affects the executive branch (the President and the military chain of command), as well as U.S. military personnel who may be deployed in situations involving Iran. It was introduced in the House of Representatives and has been referred to the House Committee on Foreign Affairs, where it will be reviewed before any further action. As of now, it has not been passed into law.
