Block U.S. bulldozer sale to Israel

If enacted, this joint resolution would prohibit the foreign military sale in Transmittal No. 24-38. Transmittal No. 24-38 was published in the Congressional Record on March 3, 2025. The prohibition would cover D9R and D9T Caterpillar bulldozers, spare and repair parts, corrosion protection, and technical documents. It would also block pre-delivery inspections, U.S. Government and contractor support, technical and logistics services, storage, and related program support. If enacted, this would stop execution of that specific transaction and prevent related U.S. exports or contractor work. Most U.S. households would likely see little direct pocketbook impact.
