To amend the War Powers Resolution to provide for the limitation on Federal funding in contravention of the requirements of the War Powers Resolution.

This bill would add a new section to the War Powers Resolution, a federal law that sets rules for when the President can send U.S. troops into armed conflict. It would bar the Department of Defense and any other federal agency from spending federal money to send U.S. Armed Forces into hostilities, or to keep them there, in violation of the War Powers Resolution's requirements. The funding limit would not apply when forces respond to a national emergency created by an imminent attack on the United States, its territories, or its Armed Forces. It also would not apply when forces respond to an imminent attack on a U.S. ally or partner.
