To repeal the authorizations for use of military force against Iraq.
Summary
H.R. 932 is a bipartisan proposal that would formally repeal the 1991 and 2002 Authorizations for Use of Military Force (AUMF) against Iraq. These decades-old laws originally provided the legal basis for the Gulf War and the 2003 invasion of Iraq, but they remain on the books today.
By repealing these measures, the bill aims to reassert Congress’s constitutional authority over declaring war and ensure that older authorizations cannot be used by the executive branch to justify new or unrelated military actions. For citizens, this change would clarify the legal limits of presidential military power and signal a formal legislative end to the Iraq War era.
