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

# Summary of SJRES 27 **What the Bill Would Do** This joint resolution would block a proposed military equipment and services sale to Israel. If passed, it would prevent the U.S. from completing a foreign military sale that has already been proposed. Joint resolutions of this type are a formal congressional mechanism to disapprove of arms sales that the executive branch has announced. **Who It Affects and Key Details** The bill would directly affect Israel's ability to receive the planned U.S. military equipment and services.

It would also impact U.S. defense contractors involved in the sale. However, the specific details about which weapons systems or services are included in the proposed sale are not provided in this summary. Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont introduced the bill; such disapproval resolutions typically reflect disagreements between Congress and the administration over foreign policy or arms sales decisions. **Current Status** As of now, the bill remains in committee, meaning it has not yet advanced to a full floor vote in either chamber of Congress. The bill has not become law. --- *Note: For specific details about which defense articles and services would be blocked, you would need to review the full bill text or the Department of Defense's foreign military sale notification.*.
