This joint resolution proposes to prohibit a specific foreign military sale to the Government of Israel. The sale in question involves an increase in the value of defense articles and services previously described in Transmittal No. 25-0C, which was submitted to Congress. Specifically, the resolution aims to disapprove an additional $624,000,000 for Major Defense Equipment (MDE) and $269,000,000 for non-MDE , citing recent cost increases as the reason for the value adjustment. This congressional disapproval is sought pursuant to section 36(b)(5)(C) of the Arms Export Control Act , effectively blocking the proposed enhancement or upgrade of sensitive foreign military items.
