A joint resolution to direct the removal of United States Armed Forces from hostilities within or against the Islamic Republic of Iran that have not been authorized by Congress.

Protection of Service Members: By directing the removal of forces from unauthorized hostilities, the bill addresses concerns regarding the loss of life, noting that six members have already been killed and more are expected (Section 1, Finding 7).

Restoration of Constitutional Authority: The bill asserts that Congress has the sole power to declare war, aiming to ensure that military actions are subject to legislative authorization rather than unilateral presidential action (Section 1, Finding 1).

Clarification of Military Duration: The resolution responds to inconsistent timelines provided by the administration, which ranged from a few weeks to an unknown scope (Section 1, Finding 8).

Reduced Defensive Capabilities: The directive to remove forces could impact the ability of the United States to defend against attacks on its personnel or facilities in other nations (Section 2, subsection b, 1).

Limitations on Intelligence and Support: The removal of forces might limit the current scope of collecting, analyzing, or sharing intelligence related to threats from Iran or its proxies (Section 2, subsection b, 2).

Reduced Assistance to Partners: The directive could affect the ability of the United States to assist partner countries that have been attacked by Iran or its proxies in intercepting retaliatory attacks or receiving defensive materiel support (Section 2, subsection b, 3).
