Referred to the House Committee on Foreign Affairs.
This joint resolution would block a proposed U.S. defense export to Israel involving Spice Family Gliding Bomb Assemblies and related technical support. The export was formally notified to Congress on October 31, 2023, through the standard arms sales notification process required by the Arms Export Control Act. If passed, the resolution would prohibit the State Department from issuing a license for this specific weapons transfer to Israel's Ministry of Defense. The measure was introduced by five House members and would require approval from both the House and Senate to take effect. No specific dollar amount for the arms sale is mentioned in the resolution text, but it addresses a single arms transfer authorization that had been submitted to Congress for review.
