The 101st Congress did not declare war before the United States invaded Iraq nor has any subsequent Congress made a formal declaration of war in regards to Iraq. In October of 2002, Congress passed The Authorization for the Use of Military Force Against Iraq Resolution of 2002. The last time the United States Congress actually made a declaration of war was on June 5, 1942. Congress has made only five formal declarations of war since the inception of the United States Federal government. Including World War II , World War I, The Spanish American War, The Mexican American War and The War of 1812.

No, the United States did not send any troops to fight before they entered the war. However, the US did send numerous weapons and aircraft to the British as aid. Furthermore, many Americans did join the British Army and Air force before the US entered the war.
