Require disclosure of strike records and autonomous-weapons waivers
Jacobs secured a provision withholding one quarter of the Secretary of Defense’s travel until the Secretary provides unredacted videos of all strikes in Latin America and copies of classified Defense Department execution orders. Another provision requires notice to Congress within 30 days of any waiver under the department’s autonomous-weapons directive, including its rationale, a system description, and the expected duration.
Context: The travel restriction is tied to providing the specified records. The source does not describe enforcement beyond withholding travel.
