How the Date Is Worked Out

1. Enacted Dec. 18, 2025 (Pub. L. 119-60).
2. Deadline runs from an event, not a calendar date: 120 days after convening the United States-Israel Defense Industrial Base Working Group.
3. No date can be set until the triggering event is publicly documented.

Delivery Status

Not publicly verifiable

Public Evidence

• No public document located that shows delivery.

Evidence Searched

• GovInfo Congressionally Mandated Reports collection: 1,209 packages listed; titles searched for Middle East terms; 55 State, Defense, Treasury and executive-office summaries checked for citations to Pub. L. 119-60 (0 found) (Oct. 17, 2026)
• MEF hand review: evidence.json, items with a link and a note on what the document shows (Oct. 17, 2026)

A status of “Reported late by GAO, committee or agency” appears only with a linked GAO, committee or agency statement. Reports sent only to committees, or in classified form, leave no public trace; their absence here is not evidence of a missed deadline.

Review

• Machine-extracted by rule from the public law text; awaiting named human review.
