Summary of Bill SJRES 26

Bill 119 SJRes 26 is a joint resolution in the US Congress that aims to disapprove of a proposed foreign military sale to Israel. The sale in question involves certain defense articles and services that are intended to be provided to Israel. The resolution seeks to prevent this sale from moving forward by expressing the disapproval of Congress.

The resolution is part of the broader debate surrounding US foreign policy and military aid to Israel.
