No WAR Act prohibits budget authority for unauthorized military operations against Iran through reconciliation measures.
The No WAR Act amends the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974 to prevent the consideration of any reconciliation bill or resolution that provides budget authority for unauthorized military operations against Iran. Such operations include offensive military actions, strikes, covert actions, or sustained engagements involving armed conflict against Iranian military forces, territory, or government institutions. This prohibition applies unless Congress has authorized such hostilities through a declaration of war or specific authorization for use of military force.
