Bill Summary

A joint resolution providing for congressional disapproval of the proposed foreign military sale to the Government of Israel of certain defense articles and services.

AI Summary

This joint resolution seeks to prohibit a proposed foreign military sale to Israel that involves specific defense articles and services as detailed in Transmittal No. 25-26. The sale includes a substantial number of bomb-related equipment, specifically 201 MK 83 MOD 4/MOD 5 General Purpose 1,000-pound bomb bodies, 4,799 BLU-110A/B General Purpose 1,000-pound bomb bodies, 1,500 KMU-559C/B Joint Direct Attack Munition (JDAM) guidance kits for the MK 83 bomb body, and 3,500 KMU-559J/B JDAM guidance kits. Additionally, the sale would include U.S. Government and contractor support services such as engineering, logistics, and technical support. The resolution, introduced in Congress, aims to block this specific military sale by using congressional disapproval powers outlined in the Arms Export Control Act, which requires Congress to be notified of proposed foreign military sales and provides a mechanism for potential intervention.
