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.

Key Points

• This joint resolution would order the withdrawal of U.S. forces from combat operations against Iran that Congress never approved. It specifically targets Operation Epic Fury, which Trump launched on February 28, 2026, involving air and missile strikes inside Iranian territory.
• More than 50,000 service members are currently involved in Operation Epic Fury. Since the operation began, 13 U.S. troops have been killed and over 350 injured in retaliatory strikes by Iran and its proxies.
• The resolution asserts Congress's constitutional war powers, noting that Congress has not declared war on Iran or authorized the use of military force there. It says the conflict was launched without congressional authorization or consultation.
• Even if passed, the resolution would still allow the U.S. to defend against direct attacks on American personnel, share intelligence with Israel and partner nations, and provide defensive support to allies who have been attacked by Iran.
• The resolution highlights the economic toll of the conflict on everyday Americans, noting that global prices for oil, gas, fertilizer, and basic goods have surged since Operation Epic Fury began.
