The War Powers Resolution of 1973 has not been declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court. While it has faced criticism and challenges, no definitive legal ruling has invalidated the law itself. Instead, it remains a subject of debate regarding its effectiveness and the balance of power between Congress and the President in military engagements.

The War Powers Act was primarily intended to what?

In passing the resolution, Congress specifically cites the Necessary and Proper Clause for its authority. Under the Necessary and Proper Clause, it is specifically provided that the Congress shall have the power to make all laws necessary and proper for carrying into execution, not only its own powers but also all other powers vested by the Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any department or officer thereof. Because it limits the President's authority in the use of force without an official resolution or declaration of war by Congress, there is controversy as to whether the provisions of the resolution are consistent with the Constitution. Presidents have therefore drafted reports to Congress required of the President to state that they are "consistent with" the War Powers Resolution rather than "pursuant to" so as to take into account the Presidential position that the Resolution is unconstitutional
