Unlikely to pass

War powers resolutions are frequently introduced by individual members of Congress but rarely gain enough bipartisan support to pass both chambers and overcome a potential veto.

Impact Analysis

Personal Impact

By seeking to end hostilities before they escalate further, this resolution could reduce the number of service members who return home with combat-related injuries, PTSD, and other conditions that create long-term demand on the VA system. Fewer combat deployments means fewer veterans dealing with the lasting effects of war.
