PLO and PA Terror Payments Accountability Act of 2025

This bill imposes U.S. sanctions on foreign individuals and entities involved in the Palestinian Authority's (PA) and Palestine Liberation Organization's (PLO) system of paying terrorists and their families. It targets PA/PLO officials, supporting organizations (like the "Commission of Prisoners"), and foreign financial institutions facilitating these payments. Key mechanisms include blocking assets, banning visas, and restricting U.S. banking access for those involved. Sanctions end only if the State Department certifies the PA/PLO has stopped these payments, as required by the 2018 Taylor Force Act.
