A joint resolution providing for congressional disapproval of the proposed foreign military sales to the Government of Ukraine of certain defense articles and services.

Key Points

• Senator Paul introduced a proposal to stop the United States from selling specific military supplies to the government of Ukraine. This action targets a deal to send spare parts for vehicles and weapons that the U.S. Army has already provided to the Ukrainian military.
• The resolution would specifically block the sale of parts needed to repair and maintain combat equipment. It would also prevent the U.S. from providing the logistics and program support needed to keep those systems running.
• This is a formal move by a member of Congress to stop an arms deal proposed by the executive branch. If this resolution passes both the Senate and the House, the U.S. government would be legally prohibited from completing this specific sale.
• This matters because it could affect Ukraine's ability to keep its U.S.-made equipment in working order during its ongoing conflict. While this proposal focuses on one specific shipment of parts, it represents a larger debate in Congress over how much military support the U.S. should provide.
