Bill overview
This bill, the Made-in-America Defense Act, requires the Department of State and the Department of Defense to annually review a list of defense articles and services currently restricted to Foreign Military Sales (FMS). The goal is to determine if some of these items could also be sold directly to foreign governments through Direct Commercial Sales (DCS), potentially streamlining the process and boosting U.S. competitiveness. The agencies must analyze the time differences, workload impacts, and national security benefits of each potential shift. A report detailing the findings will be submitted to Congress.
