Bill Summary
A BILL To provide for emergency acquisition authority in the event of armed attack against a United States ally or partner by a foreign adversary of the United States.
AI Summary
This bill, the Securing American ARMS Act of 2023, provides emergency acquisition authority to the U.S. government to replenish U.S. stockpiles of defense articles that have been diminished as a result of the U.S. providing those articles in response to an armed attack by a "country of concern" against a U.S. ally or partner. The bill also allows the U.S. to contract for the movement or delivery of those defense articles to the ally or partner. The key terms "country of concern" and "U.S. ally" are defined in existing law. This measure is intended to ensure the U.S. can quickly resupply its allies and partners in the event of an armed attack by a foreign adversary.
