Bill Summary

A joint resolution providing for congressional disapproval of the proposed license amendment for the export to Israel of certain defense articles and services.

AI Summary

This joint resolution prohibits the issuance of a license amendment for exporting specific defense articles and services to Israel, specifically blocking the transfer of 15,500 additional Joint Direct Attack Munition (JDAM) tail kits and 615 Small Diameter Bomb (SDB) Increment I variants to the Israeli Ministry of Defense. The resolution is based on Transmittal No. DDTC 24-052, which was submitted to Congress under section 36(c) of the Arms Export Control Act and published in the Congressional Record on February 10, 2025. The resolution effectively prevents the proposed export of these Boeing Direct Attack Weapons by using congressional disapproval, which is a mechanism that allows Congress to block certain executive branch actions related to military sales or exports.
