CCP Accountability Act: Sanctions for COVID-19 Related Actions.

This act allows the U.S. President to impose sanctions on individuals linked to the Chinese Communist Party and Chinese health agencies. Sanctions target actions related to the COVID-19 pandemic, such as suppressing information or limiting free speech. While not directly affecting U.S. citizens, the act could influence international relations.
Key points
The President can freeze assets of individuals responsible for suppressing COVID-19 information or limiting free speech in China.
Sanctioned individuals may be denied entry to the U.S. and have their visas revoked.
Sanctions can be waived if it's in the U.S. national interest or terminated if the person demonstrates a change in behavior.
