Whole on the following amendment

SEC. 2707. REPEAL OF WAR POWERS RESOLUTION.

(a) REPEAL.—

(2) CONFORMING REPEAL.—Section 1013 of

the Department of State Authorization Act,

Fiscal Years 1984 and 1985 (50 U.S.C. 1546a) is

repealed.

(b) CONSULTATION WITH CONGRESS.—

(1) PRIOR CONSULTATION.—The President

shall in every possible instance consult with

Congress before introducing United States

Armed Forces into hostilities or into situations where imminent involvement in hostilities is clearly indicated by the circumstances.

(2) CONSULTATION AFTER INTRODUCTION OF

ARMED FORCES.—The President shall, after

every such introduction, consult regularly

with Congress until United States Armed

Forces are no longer engaged in hostilities or

have been removed from such situations.

(c) REPORTING TO CONGRESS.—

(1) INITIAL REPORT.—

(A) IN GENERAL.—Subject to subparagraph

(B), the President shall, in the absence of a

declaration of war, submit a report to Congress in any case in which United States

Armed Forces are introduced.—

(i) into hostilities or into a situation where

imminent involvement in hostilities is clearly indicated by the circumstances;

(ii) into the territory, airspace, or waters

of a foreign nation, while equipped for combat, except for a deployment which relates

solely to supply, replacement, repair, or

(iii) in numbers which substantially enlarge United States Armed Forces equipped

for combat already located in a foreign nation.

(B) EXCEPTION.—The requirement that the

President submit a report to Congress in accordance with subparagraph (A) shall not

(2) TIME AND CONTENT OF REPORT.—A report

under paragraph (1) shall be submitted within 48 hours of the introduction of United

States Armed Forces described in that paragraph. Each such report shall be in writing

and shall set forth—

(A) the circumstances necessitating the introduction of United States Armed Forces;

(B) the constitutional and legislative authority under which such introduction took

place; and

(C) the estimated scope and duration of the

hostilities or involvement.

(3) ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.—The President shall provide such other information as

Congress may request in the fulfillment of

its constitutional responsibilities with respect to committing the Nation to war and

to the use of United States Armed Forces

abroad.

(4) PERIODIC REPORTS.—Whenever United

States Armed Force are introduced into hostilities or into any situation described in

paragraph (1), the President shall, consistent

with the constitutional responsibilities of

the President and so long as such Armed
