AOC leads effort to block arms sale to Israel

New York Democrat Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez introduced a resolution Wednesday to block a White House-approved $735 million arms sale to Israel.

Congress’ only Palestinian-American Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., and Rep. Mark Pocan, D-Wisc., joined Ocasio-Cortez’s efforts.

The resolution seeks to block the sale of Joint Direct Attack Munitions (JDAMS), a tail kit that converts "dumb" bombs into precision-guided missiles, which are believed to have been used in the recent conflict between Israel and the Palestinian territories.
