Public Law P.L. 112-150 — US-Israel Enhanced Security Cooperation Act (P.L. 112-150), enacted 2012-07-27. Every recorded vote below is cited to the official government record.
US policy locked to a foreign army's edge — this Act makes it the declared policy of the United States to help Israel preserve its qualitative military edge and expands security-cooperation authorities, converting an executive preference into a statutory commitment that no later administration has to be asked about and no Congress has to re-vote.
