HJRES 84 is a congressional resolution that would prohibit the United States from completing a specific arms sale to Israel. The items covered are D9R and D9T Caterpillar armored bulldozers, along with spare parts, maintenance support, technical documents, and related services. The sale was formally notified to Congress on March 3, 2025, which triggered Congress's legal window to block it.
The resolution was introduced by a group of House members and referred to the Foreign Affairs Committee. It directly affects U.S. defense industry companies involved in the deal, U.S. government agencies that process arms sales, and Israel as the intended buyer.
If passed by both the House and Senate and signed into law, the resolution would cancel this specific transaction. It does not alter any other U.S. weapons sales or broader U.S. policy toward Israel.
