HR 2468 Re-checks Congress.gov for new actions and updates the bill's status, and fills in any sponsors, committees, or related bills that are missing. It does not re-pull sponsors/cosponsors/committees/related — those rarely change — and it skips all work if nothing has changed upstream, so it's cheap to click.
No Sanctions Relief for Terrorists Act
To prohibit the issuance of licenses or other waivers from sanctions imposed pursuant to certain authorities relating to the conduct of Iran, and for other purposes.
Summary
This bill prohibits the issuance of licenses or waivers that would provide relief from sanctions against Iranian individuals and entities. It applies to all Iranian persons listed as of January 20, 2021, by the Office of Foreign Assets Control as specially designated nationals and blocked persons for involvement in terrorism. The President may only grant a license or waiver if the President certifies to four congressional committees—the House Foreign Affairs and Financial Services committees and the Senate Foreign Relations and Banking committees—that the designated persons have ceased their involvement in terrorism. The bill does not restrict general licenses that were in effect on January 20, 2021.
