Repealing Authorizations for Use of Military Force Against Iraq.

This bill aims to formally repeal two historical laws that granted US Presidents the authority to use military force against Iraq (from 1991 and 2002). Removing these authorizations restores greater Congressional oversight over potential future military engagements in that country. This change impacts foreign policy and potential military involvement, increasing civilian oversight of the military.
