To direct the removal of United States Armed Forces from hostilities within or against the Republic of Cuba that have not been authorized by Congress.

This joint resolution directs the removal of United States Armed Forces from hostilities within or against the Republic of Cuba. It specifies that such removal is required because Congress has not declared war on Cuba or any organization within it. The resolution notes that military actions, such as blockades or quarantines, constitute hostilities under the War Powers Resolution. Under this resolution, the President must remove these forces unless there is a specific declaration of war or statutory authorization. Finally, the resolution clarifies that it does not prevent the United States from defending itself from attacks or conducting counternarcotics operations.
