Israel Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2024
This bill provides FY2024 supplemental appropriations to the Department of Defense (DOD) and the Department of State for activities to respond to the attacks in Israel. The bill designates the funding as emergency spending, which is exempt from discretionary spending limits.
The bill provides appropriations to DOD for Operation and Maintenance; Procurement; and Research, Development, Test and Evaluation. The funding is provided for purposes such as
replacing defense articles that were provided to Israel,
reimbursing DOD for defense services and training provided to Israel,
procuring Israel's Iron Dome and David's Sling defense systems, and
developing Israel's Iron Beam defense system.
The bill provides appropriations to the State Department for
Diplomatic Programs, including Worldwide Security Protection;
Emergencies in the Diplomatic and Consular Service; and
the Foreign Military Financing Program.
In addition, the bill includes provisions that expand the authorities of the President to transfer defense articles and services from DOD to Israel.
Finally, the bill rescinds specified unobligated funds that were provided for activities of the Internal Revenue Service.

Where is it in the process, and what happens next?
The latest action on file does not map to a stage Civibrief recognizes, so the page will not name one. The record's own words are the reliable fact here.
The record's latest action, on November 14, 2023: Cloture motion on the motion to proceed to the measure rendered moot in Senate.
How likely is it to become law?
Civibrief does not forecast outcomes and this page has no opinion about this one. What the record supports is a base rate, which is a fact about the whole pile, not a prediction about this measure.
In the 118th Congress (2023-24), 274 of the 16,565 bills and joint resolutions introduced became law, about 1.7 percent. That count covers every measure at every stage, including the many that never left committee.
This one has no outstanding steps listed above.
Has anyone actually voted on it?
No. No roll call in this Congress cites this measure. That is the ordinary outcome: most measures never reach a recorded floor vote, and a committee ends most of them simply by not acting.
A vote is not the only thing that happens to a measure. Hearings, markups, and referrals are all recorded actions, and none of them is a vote of the full chamber.
Who is behind it?
KAY GRANGER (R-TX) introduced it on November 1, 2023, and 110 members have since signed on as cosponsors.
They are 110 Republicans.
Cosponsoring is a formal signature on the text. It is not a commitment to vote for the measure, it does not bind anyone's party, and a long list of cosponsors is a measure of attention rather than of prospects.
How long has it been in play?
It was introduced on November 1, 2023, 1044 days ago. The most recent recorded action was 1031 days ago, on November 14, 2023.
Measures do not carry over. Anything the 118th Congress has not finished by January 3, 2025 dies when the term ends, and has to be introduced again from the start in the next Congress.
Every answer above is assembled from this measure's own record on Congress.gov and from published counts of what Congress has passed before. Civibrief does not predict outcomes and takes no position on any measure.
