I doubt that it'll pass so long as the USA remans a signator to the 1860 Treaty of Vienna, in which most major nations agreed not to issue further Letters of Marque and Reprisal.
It would make for a better end for America's aging fleet of mothballed and decomissioned naval vessels rotting away in harbours though, particularly older US submarines, even though opportunities for activities against landlocked Afghanistan would seem rather limited. But some of the airceraft in storage at the MASD facility at Davis-Monthan AFB near Tucson might find interesting applications.
