Providing for congressional disapproval of the proposed foreign military sale to Turkey of certain defense articles and services.
Key claim: A joint resolution (HJRES200) has been introduced in the 119th Congress to disapprove a proposed foreign military sale of certain defense articles and services to Turkey.
Abstract
(HJRES200 · 119th Congress) Latest action (2026-07-02): Referred to the House Committee on Foreign Affairs.
Why this matters
Congressional disapproval resolutions under the Arms Export Control Act are the principal legislative check on defense export approvals, directly affecting U.S. defense exporters’ ability to complete sales to specific partner countries. A Turkey-focused resolution signals continued congressional friction over arms transfers to Ankara, and if advanced could delay or block specific defense trade flows even absent broader export-control policy changes.
