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 resolution directs the President to remove United States Armed Forces from hostilities with Iran. It is introduced under section 5(c) of the War Powers Resolution. The text allows for forces to remain if they are needed to defend the United States, an ally, or a partner from an imminent attack. To do this, the President must fully comply with section 5(b) of the War Powers Resolution.
