Strengthening Iran Sanctions and Nuclear Deal Oversight
This act aims to tighten sanctions against individuals and entities supporting Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps. It also mandates Senate approval for any future nuclear agreements with Iran, increasing congressional oversight. For citizens, this means a potential strengthening of national security by limiting the financing of terrorism and weapons proliferation.
Key points
Expanded Sanctions: New rules include individuals and entities providing significant financial services or material support to Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps or other terrorist organizations.
