Summary

Declares congressional support for the President's policy of protecting freedom of navigation in the Persian Gulf and restoring the peace and security of the region through continued diplomatic initiatives, cooperation with U.S. allies in the region, and appropriate military actions. Expresses the sense of the Congress that: (1) U.S. armed forces in the Gulf should continue to have the authorization to respond expeditiously in a defensive manner to military actions which immediately threaten the safety of U.S. personnel, shipping under the U.S. flag, and other U.S. interests; and (2) the President should continue to consult the leadership of the Congress to the maximum extent practicable before authorizing military responses to attacks in the Gulf and should report to the Congress in a timely manner on incidents involving U.S. forces in the Gulf.
