AI Summary
This Joint Resolution prohibits the United States from issuing an export license for specific defense articles and services to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, as detailed in license document DDTC-17-112. This means Congress is formally disapproving and blocking the proposed sale of defense items, including technical data and support services, which are intended to help manufacture the Aurora Fuzing System for the Paveway IV Precision Guided Bomb Program. The Arms Export Control Act is the law that governs such exports, and the Department of State designates what falls under these regulations.
