Congress Gains Veto Power Over Iran Sanctions Relief Decisions.
This law increases Congressional oversight of the President's decisions regarding easing or lifting sanctions against Iran. Before the President can take such action, a detailed report must be submitted to Congress for review. This ensures that significant shifts in US foreign policy toward Iran require explicit approval or lack of disapproval from lawmakers.
Key points
The President must notify Congress and wait for a review period before terminating or waiving sanctions on Iran.
Congress has 30 days (or 60 days during summer) to review the proposal and can block the action via a joint resolution of disapproval.
The goal is to subject major changes in US policy toward Iran to rigorous scrutiny by both houses of Congress.
