About this vote

A point of order is a claim that a Senate rule is being broken, and the Senate votes on whether it is well taken; a Yes vote would agree that it is. The Congressional Research Service says S.J.Res. 54 directs the President to remove U.S. Armed Forces from hostilities in or affecting Yemen within 30 days unless Congress authorizes a later withdrawal date, issues a declaration of war, or specifically authorizes the use of the Armed Forces.
