Repealing Authorizations for Use of Military Force Against Iraq

This document repeals two previous authorizations for the use of military force against Iraq from 1991 and 2002. This change does not affect current U.S. military operations in Iraq, which are conducted at the invitation of the Iraqi government to combat ISIS. Citizens may see this as a step towards ending long-standing military authorizations that are no longer necessary.
