How did the War Powers Act of 1973 affect the power of the president?

The War Powers Resolution of 1973 required the president to notify Congress within 48 hours after introducing U.S. forces into hostilities or situations where hostilities were imminent. It also generally limited their involvement to 60 days without congressional authorization, with time for withdrawal afterward. Therefore, the choice about informing Congress within forty-eight hours is correct; choice A incorrectly says the president’s approval was required for forces to remain.
