This bill would keep U.S. sanctions on Iran from expiring by removing the law’s end date. It says U.S. policy is to fully carry out and enforce the Iran Sanctions Act, which targets Iran’s weapons programs and support for terrorism. The bill cites concerns about Iran buying advanced weapons and aiding militant groups in the region .
In plain terms, the sanctions law would stay in place without a set expiration. That means the U.S. could keep pressuring Iran through limits on trade, finance, and other penalties tied to the existing sanctions law .
