Contact Congress about H.R. 8369: Israel Security Assistance Support Act

The bill would require fast delivery of planned U.S. defense aid to Israel. It would block certain funds from being used to slow or cancel those deliveries and require regular reports to Congress.

Modern Action explains legislation in plain English, helps you choose whether to support, oppose, or ask for changes, and drafts a message tied to the bill, your stance, and the elected officials who can act on it.

Israel Security Assistance Support Act is a House bill in Congress.

Who this affects: This bill mainly affects Israel, U.S. defense and foreign policy officials, Congress, and companies involved in defense sales to Israel. It would make planned U.S. military support to Israel move faster. It would also limit how much the President, the Defense Department, and the State Department can slow or pause certain deliveries after Congress has approved the money or sale.

Why this matters: This bill matters because it would make U.S. military aid to Israel harder to pause during an active conflict. Today, the executive branch may have more room to slow or adjust some arms transfers as conditions change. This bill would narrow that room for the defense support it covers. It could give Israel more certainty, but it could also make it harder for U.S. officials to use delays as a foreign policy tool.

Key provisions in H.R. 8369

  • The Defense Department and State Department could not use 2024 or older funds to delay or cancel U.S. defense deliveries to Israel. This covers defense items and defense services.
  • Those departments also could not use those funds to pay certain officials. The ban applies to any Defense or State employee who helps hold back or cancel the deliveries.
  • The Defense Secretary and Secretary of State would have to make sure planned aid for Israel moves promptly in fiscal years 2024 and 2025. This includes Foreign Military Sales, which are government-to-government arms sales, and certain emergency transfers.
  • The Secretary of State would have to move private defense sales to Israel promptly. These direct commercial sales include items and services for Israel's Ministry of Public Security.
  • Any defense items or services being held back when the bill becomes law would have to be sent to Israel within 15 days.
