S 4073 United States Senate · 118th Congress

A bill to prohibit the use of funds to waive certain sanctions with respect to Iran.

This bill (S 4073) prohibits using fiscal year 2024 federal funds to waive specific Iran sanctions under two existing laws. It blocks the executive branch from making determinations or issuing waivers under Section 1245(d)(5) of the 2012 National Defense Authorization Act or Sections 1244(i)/1247(f) of the 2012 Iran Freedom and Counter-Proliferation Act. The restriction directly affects federal agencies responsible for enforcing Iran sanctions, preventing them from using appropriated funds to grant exemptions. This is a concrete policy change that limits waiver authority for certain Iran-related sanctions during FY2024.
