Ensuring Peace Through Strength in Israel Act

Key: what the circles and colors mean

Each circle is a bill. The ring fills as it moves through Congress:

IntroducedPassed one chamberPassed both chambersBecame law (gold)Resolution agreed to (full, dark)Failed or vetoed (gray)

Under the number: the Yea · Nay count of its final (or latest) recorded vote. On a member's page, the small badge is how that member voted: Y Yea / Aye, N Nay / No, P Present, – Not voting.

Gold and violet are only for Yea and Nay; they never mean a party. A member's party is the letter on their photo.

Never voted on. It didn't reach a floor vote before the 118th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.

Ensuring Peace Through Strength in Israel Act

This bill requires the Department of Defense to make annual assessments from 2024 through 2028 with regards to the quantity and type of munitions Israel needs to defend itself and prevail in the event of sustained armed confrontation with specified adversaries (for example, Iran or Hamas). The assessment must address subjects such as (1) whether sufficient quantities and types of such munitions exist in Israeli and U.S. stockpiles, and (2) the pace at which the United States could replenish Israeli stockpiles in the event of such conflicts.
