Bill 119 SJRes 20 is a joint resolution that seeks to disapprove of a proposed foreign military sale to Israel. The sale in question involves the transfer of certain defense articles and services to Israel. The resolution is being considered by the US Congress as a way to express disapproval of this specific arms deal.
