Bill > HR5798

This bill, the Arms Sale Oversight Act, modifies the expedited procedures in the House of Representatives under Section 36 of the Arms Export Control Act. The key changes include: (1) allowing for a motion to discharge a committee from further consideration of a joint resolution prohibiting a proposed arms sale if the committee has not reported the resolution within 10 calendar days; (2) limiting debate on such joint resolutions to 10 hours, divided equally between supporters and opponents; and (3) prohibiting the consideration of multiple resolutions on the same proposed arms sale. These changes aim to streamline the process for congressional oversight of proposed arms sales.
