Congress's say over fighting in Iran — approval needed to continue

The President would have to pull U.S. forces out of the fighting with Iran. That would stand unless Congress votes to declare war or approve the mission. Defense against attacks, intelligence sharing, and help for allies hit by Iran could continue.

More about this bill

Most people would see no change in daily life. But this resolution would decide who can send U.S. troops into a fight with Iran. It would order the President to pull American forces out of that fighting. The order would stand unless Congress declares war or votes to approve the mission. The resolution points to air strikes President Trump ordered inside Iran on February 28, 2026. He called them "massive and ongoing" and called the situation war. Congress had not approved those strikes. Troops could still defend themselves and U.S. sites in other countries. The U.S. could also share intelligence and help allies block attacks from Iran.
