Solidify Iran Sanctions Act of 2025
HR 1800, the "Solidify Iran Sanctions Act of 2025," removes the expiration date from existing U.S. sanctions targeting Iran's weapons programs and support for terrorism. It repeals the sunset provision in the 1996 Iran Sanctions Act, ensuring these sanctions remain permanently in effect without requiring future congressional renewal. The bill directly affects foreign entities, including those involved in Iran's conventional weapons acquisitions or support for terrorist proxies, by maintaining existing penalties for engaging with Iran's sanctioned activities. This is a procedural change to solidify current policy, not a new expansion of sanctions.
