No WAR Act
In committeeNo War Appropriations through Reconciliation Act or the No WAR Act This bill establishes a budget point of order that prohibits considering reconciliation legislation that provides funding for unauthorized military force against Iran. (Reconciliation is an expedited method by which Congress may adopt changes in spending and revenue laws to achieve the budgetary goals reflected in a congressional budget resolution. Reconciliation bills are considered by Congress using expedited legislative procedures that prevent a filibuster and restrict amendments in the Senate.) Specifically, the point of order may be raised to prohibit the consideration of reconciliation legislation that provides budget authority for hostilities, including hostilities conducted by a proxy force, against Iran unless Congress has authorized such hostilities through a declaration of war or a specific authorization for use of military force. Under the bill, hostilities includes any offensive military operation, strike, covert action, or sustained engagement involving armed conflict against Iranian military forces, territory, or government institutions. The point of order may be waived by a vote of at least three-fifths of all Senators duly chosen and sworn (60 votes if there are no vacancies).
