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 the United States Armed Forces from hostilities with Iran.

The resolution notes that this direction applies unless there is a declaration of war or specific authorization for use of military force. It also includes specific rules of construction regarding defense, intelligence, and the authorization of force.
