senate 03/11/2025 - 119th Congress
We're working to introduce legislation that would prohibit the sale and export of specific defense articles to the United Arab Emirates until it is confirmed that they are not supporting the Rapid Support Forces in Sudan. This aims to ensure that our defense exports are aligned with our global responsibility to prevent support for entities involved in regional conflicts.
