Create an arms-sale oversight board

Murray’s bill would create a Human Rights and Law of War Oversight Board with authority to designate countries of concern, investigate and conduct oversight, monitor compliance, and assess new policies. The board’s work would aim to keep human rights and the law of armed conflict central to future arms decisions.

Context: The board would be created under the proposed bill.
