Cold War Military Force Repeal Act

This legislative proposal, named the Cold War Military Force Repeal Act, aims to revoke a specific historical resolution. Its primary objective is to repeal "A joint resolution to promote peace and stability in the Middle East," which is codified as Public Law 85-7.

This original joint resolution, often associated with the Eisenhower Doctrine, historically granted the President authority to deploy U.S. military forces to assist Middle Eastern nations requesting aid against perceived communist aggression. By repealing this resolution, the bill would eliminate this particular, decades-old statutory authorization for military action in the region, effectively removing a Cold War-era legal framework.
