Lawmakers Introduce Resolution to Pull U.S. Troops Out of Hostilities With Iran
This resolution would directly affect active-duty service members currently deployed in or near Iran by requiring their withdrawal from hostilities within 30 days of February 28, 2026. However, the resolution allows troops to remain in the region for defensive purposes and self-defense, so the impact depends on how broadly 'hostilities' is defined. If passed, it could reduce the danger facing deployed troops by pulling them out of active combat, but it remains a very early-stage proposal with uncertain prospects.
