Sens. Jim Banks (R-IN) and Jacky Rosen (D-NV) are set to introduce legislation on Wednesday to reauthorize the U.S. weapons stockpile in Israel through 2029 from its current expiration date of 2027.

The stockpile allows the U.S. to preposition weapons in Israel that it can provide to Jerusalem for use in crisis scenarios. Lawmakers had also worked in recent years to pass legislation to review and modernize the weaponry stored in the stockpile.

“This bill strengthens America’s military readiness and ensures we’re prepared for any crisis in the region. Supporting Israel, our most important Middle East ally, directly protects U.S. interests and helps keep Americans safe,” Banks said in a statement.

“I’m proud to help introduce this bipartisan legislation that will bolster our defensive posture as well as continue to enable us to swiftly support our ally Israel with the resources it needs to protect itself,” Rosen added.

The bill’s introduction comes amid the Senate Armed Services Committee’s 2026 National Defense Authorization Act markup this week.
