SJRES 33 United States Senate · 119th Congress

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

SJRES 33 is a congressional resolution seeking to block a specific U.S. military sale to Israel. It targets defense articles and services detailed in Transmittal No. 25-34, including 35,529 MK 84 or BLU-117 bombs and 4,000 I-2000 warheads, plus related support like spare parts and technical services. If approved, this resolution would prohibit the U.S. government from proceeding with this foreign military sale under the Arms Export Control Act. The measure directly affects the U.S. government's ability to authorize this transaction and Israel as the recipient. It does not alter broader U.S.-Israel defense relations but focuses solely on disapproving this particular package.
