CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
Expressing the sense of Congress with respect to accomplishing the mission in Iraq.
Whereas the members of the United States Armed Forces have served honorably and courageously in Iraq;
Whereas Congress and the people of the United States owe a debt of gratitude to those members of the Armed Forces who have died fighting for their country; and
Whereas Iraq will have established a free and democratic government once it completes its constitution-making process: Now, therefore, be it
That it is the sense of Congress that—
the United States should not maintain a permanent military presence or military bases in Iraq;
the United States should not attempt to control the flow of Iraqi oil; and
United States Armed Forces should be redeployed from Iraq as soon as practicable after the completion of Iraq’s constitution-making process or December 31, 2006, whichever occurs first.
