Would block bulldozer sale to Israel
If enacted, this would prohibit a proposed U.S. sale to Israel under the Arms Export Control Act. It targets the sale in Transmittal No. 24-38, published March 3, 2025. The ban would cover D9R and D9T Caterpillar bulldozers, spare and repair parts, corrosion protection, manuals and technical documents, pre-delivery inspections, storage, and U.S. government and contractor technical and logistics support. The sale would be blocked once this resolution becomes law. U.S. firms tied to this deal could lose contracts and revenue.
