Strengthening Visa Enforcement: Denying Entry to Sanctioned Foreign Officials.

This law mandates that the United States must deny entry visas to individuals who are currently subject to sanctions related to Iran (under Executive Order 13876). This tightens border control and foreign policy by explicitly blocking specific foreign representatives from entering the country, even if they are designated delegates to the United Nations. The goal is to enhance national security by strictly enforcing existing sanctions.
