To authorize the use of United States Armed Forces against the Islamic Republic of Iran for threatening the national security of the United States through the development of nuclear weapons.
{... many grievances later ...}
Whereas, on July 23, 2024, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence published an assessment, in accordance with Iran Nuclear Weapons Capability and Terrorism Monitoring Act of 2022 (22 U.S.C. 8701 note; Public Law 117–263), which stated, “Iran continues to increase the size of its uranium stockpile, increase its enrichment capacity, and develop, manufacture, and operate advanced centrifuges. Tehran has the infrastructure and experience to quickly produce weapons-grade uranium, at multiple facilities, if it chooses to do so.”: Now, therefore, be it
SECTION 1. Authorization for the use of military force against the Islamic Republic of Iran.
The President is authorized to use all necessary and appropriate force against the Islamic Republic of Iran if the President determines that the Islamic Republic of Iran—
(1) is in the process of possessing a nuclear weapon that threatens the national security interests of the United States; or
(2) possesses uranium enriched to weapons-grade level, possesses a nuclear warhead, or possesses a delivery vehicle capable of carrying a nuclear warhead that threatens the national security interests of the United States.
SEC. 2. War powers resolution requirements.
(a) Specific statutory authorization.—Consistent with section 8(a)(1) of the War Powers Resolution (50 U.S.C. 1547(a)(1)), the Congress declares that this section is intended to constitute specific statutory authorization within the meaning of section 5(b) of the War Powers Resolution (50 U.S.C. 1544(b)).
(b) Applicability of other requirements.—Nothing in this resolution supersedes any requirement of the War Powers Resolution (50 U.S.C. 1541 et seq.).

After giving $800 Billion to Iran to help them build nuclear weapons........
I told everyone this would happen. Biden would start a war before November. The war would ensure the WH stays under Democrat control because this nation never votes out a president or party in the middle of a war.
Yes— and why now from Linda Graham who manipulates and is manipulated by the mil-industrials. Frankly, the Israelis are doing a very good job deconstructing the mullahcracy in Iran, and likely have deep agents inside to remove any nuclear threat at the right time.
What President is this directed to one wonders, “ka-MA-la who sides nearly completely with the Iranian/Palestinians, or the “wandering boy” joey bags biden who does not know where he is-— who would Executive CIC be to sign off on an operation— Lloyd bozo Austin mr. politics who finally figured out not a good time to let Khalid Sheikh Mohammed plea bargain out (after 23 years no less).
Yes- the ka-ma-la camel in office is definitely disturbing. Camels nose under the tent- a tent obama put up in DC 8 plus years ago. Graham is disgusting his unguided (w/out McCain who is his big bear pal?) sabre rattling.
This kind of sh!t is why I’m not a Republican.
Fricking mcconnell is behind this. They are taking America to war with dementia rattled potus, a dei sc and a lgbtqabc military. FUBAR
So... if the “development of nuclear weapons” is a threat to national security of another country and authorizes the use of force, well then there are a lot of countries that are authorized the use of force against the United States.
Thanks Democrat Jimmy Carter.
your intentional inactivity in the 70s may lead to the worlds first nuclear war (both sides using).
Ever so slowly inching he hands of the doomsday clock forward to twelve O’ clock midnight.
But utterly silent about Iran’s funding and exportation of terrorism against Israel.
Election year posing vs desire to start WWIII, both with the same intention -— keep the dems in power. The irony, of course, being WE’RE the ones who gave them the means to build the bomb. Evil administration, evil legislators.
Sounds great! An attack on Iran means an attack on Russia who will come to their defense. Then an attack on Russia means China will come to the defense of Russia. Just a WIN WIN WIN situation. Trust me, nothing can go wrong on that deal.
Dont forget the new chicken flu as plan B!
