details of a joint resolution of disapproval-

Congress can call a joint resolution of disapproval which is the only mechanism available to Congress to prevent arm sales from going forward, it is introduced in the Senate to try to prohibit the sale from going forward but all of the history of this process going back to the 1970s no joint resolution disapproval has ever been successful in stopping any arms sales because it requires a 2/3 majority in both the House and the Senate.

Although I believe every action we take to try to stop the genocide is valuable, calling, protesting, boycotting whatever you can do.
