Providing for congressional disapproval of the proposed direct commercial sale to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia of certain weaponry and munitions.
HJRES 63 is a joint resolution that would block a specific proposed commercial sale of U.S. weapons to Saudi Arabia. It targets 280 AMRAAM air-to-air missiles, 596 missile launchers, and related support equipment, which were submitted to Congress for review under the Arms Export Control Act. The resolution would prohibit the U.S. government from issuing an export license for these items, preventing the sale from moving forward. This directly affects Saudi Arabia's planned acquisition of these weapons through a commercial transaction with U.S. defense companies.
