The final resolution to halt the transfer of so-called JDAM precision munition kits is similarly defeated, though Jewish Senator Jon Ossoff of Georgia votes against it after joining other Democrats to vote against the sale of tank and mortar rounds to Israel.
New Jersey’s George Helmy also votes against the measure, after backing the motion to prevent the sale of mortar rounds.
