Read twice and referred to the Committee on Foreign Relations.
This resolution would block a proposed military sale to Israel involving approximately 8-ton cargo trucks with armor upgrades, spare parts, technical support, and training services. The sale was formally submitted to Congress in September 2024 under standard arms export procedures. Senators Bernie Sanders and Peter Welch introduced the measure to prevent the transaction from proceeding. If passed, the resolution would prohibit the Defense Department from completing this particular military sale, though such disapproval resolutions typically face challenges in Congress. The measure was referred to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee for consideration.
