H.Res. 166In Committee
Iran Regime Change Resolution (H.Res. 166)
House, 119th Congress, Session 1
Summary
Non-binding resolution expressing support for regime change in Iran, condemning the Iranian government's terrorism, proxy activities, and human rights abuses. Referred to the House Foreign Affairs Committee.
Editorial Note
Tom McClintock of California introduced H.Res. 166 on February 26, 2025, ten months before the war began. It expresses support for the Iranian people and condemns the Iranian regime, framing regime change as democratic solidarity. It has 226 cosponsors, 140 Republicans and 86 Democrats, one of the most bipartisan Iran policy measures of the 119th Congress. The resolution has not been brought to the floor but the cosponsor list reads like a pre-vote whip count for the war that came later.
