Key points
Freezing $6 billion of Iranian funds in Qatar, previously released for humanitarian purposes.
Rescinding all authorizations for Iran to access these funds, issued before the act's enactment.
Requiring the Secretary of the Treasury to report on all blocked Iranian assets and issued exemptions.
