Section 1534 recommends a provision that would authorize funding for the procurement of the Iron Dome short-range rocket defense system, David's Sling Weapon System, and Arrow 3 Upper Tier Interceptor Program under the U.S.-Israel cooperative missile defense agreement.

The Senate Armed Services Committee report for the FY2026 NDAA explicitly includes authorization for Iron Dome procurement funding and related Israeli missile-defense programs.

Cornyn’s promise was to support Iron Dome funding or assistance, not necessarily to single-handedly enact it. In his current federal Senate term, he voted yes to proceed on the FY2026 NDAA, and the Senate committee report for that bill included authorization for Iron Dome procurement funding and related U.S.-Israel missile-defense programs. That is direct federal legislative support for the promised outcome in the same term.
