The President is authorized to use the Armed Forces of the United States as the President determines to be necessary and appropriate against the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant ( ISIL ) or associated persons or forces as defined in section 4. Consistent with section 8(a)(1) of the War Powers Resolution ( 50 U.S.C. 1547(a)(1) ), Congress declares that this section is intended to constitute specific statutory authorization within the meaning of section 5(b) of the War Powers Resolution ( 50 U.S.C. 1544(b) ). Nothing in this resolution supersedes any requirement of the War Powers Resolution ( 50 U.S.C. 1541 et seq.).
