More about this bill

Most people would see no change in daily life. This resolution would block one weapons sale to Israel's government. The deal covers 12,000 bomb bodies, each weighing 1,000 pounds. It also covers the engineering and logistics support that U.S. staff and companies would provide with them. Congress can block a major foreign arms sale after it gets formal notice. The Senate got notice of this deal on March 12, 2026. Senators Sanders, Van Hollen, Merkley, and Welch introduced the measure a week later. It has not become law. In April 2026, senators voted 36 to 63 against bringing it up for a vote.
