Ending trade with aggressors and strengthening human rights sanctions.

This act allows the U.S. President to impose higher tariffs on goods from countries committing acts of aggression. It also strengthens human rights and anti-corruption sanctions, broadening their scope and removing time limits. This aims to protect U.S. interests and promote human rights globally.
Key points
The President can raise tariffs on products from countries that attack other nations, potentially affecting prices of imported goods.
The list of individuals and entities subject to human rights and corruption sanctions has been expanded to include family members and those who support such activities.
Sanctions for human rights abuses and corruption become permanent, without an expiration date, increasing their long-term impact.
