Congress disapproves of the decision of President George W. Bush announced on January 10, 2007, to deploy more than 20,000 additional United States combat troops to Iraq.

The United States Policy in Iraq Act (section 1227 of Public Law 109–163; 119 Stat. 3465; 50 U.S.C. 1541 note) is amended by adding at the end the following new subsection:

(d)

To the maximum extent practicable each report shall be unclassified, with a classified annex if necessary.
