house 09/30/2025 - 119th Congress
We are working to authorize the President to officially claim weapons seized from shipments originating in Iran to the Houthis in Yemen, allowing these arms to be used as U.S. stocks or provided to foreign partners. This aims to enhance oversight and strategic management of intercepted materials linked to conflict zones.

Seizing weapons from Iran? Great—more arms for a U.S. government addicted to militarism.

If Iran is shipping weapons to terrorists, we should be taking them off the table, not passing them around like hot potatoes.

More muscle for our allies, less handouts—this bill cuts the deadweight from our defense strategy.

Finally, a smart way to turn enemy weapons against our foes—why pay when you can seize?

Using captured materiel is smart resourcefulness—but let’s not get blindfolded by easy solutions.

This bill is just another way to fuel conflicts abroad while ignoring peace at home.

Turning seized war materiel into ‘U.S. stocks’? Sounds like a new arms race in hypocrisy.

Seizing arms in transit makes sense, but who watches the watchdog in reporting? Transparency is key.

If we’re grabbing weapons anyway, better to control where they go than let chaos handle it.
