Requires the State Department, working with the Defense Department, to review each year which defense items now sold only through the government-to-government foreign military sales program could instead be sold directly by companies, and to report the results to Congress.

• Requires an annual review, starting within one year of enactment, of defense articles and services that must go through foreign military sales but could be eligible for direct commercial sales
• Directs the review to compare transfer times under each system, the workload on State and Defense, and the national security and competitiveness benefits
• Requires a report to the House and Senate Foreign Affairs or Foreign Relations and Armed Services committees within 30 days of each review, covering delays, steps taken to reduce them, and any items added or removed from the FMS-Only list
• States a sense of Congress that faster delivery of defense items to allies strengthens national security

• Foreign Affairs Committee (House)
• Foreign Relations Committee (Senate)
