Bill overview
The Maximum Pressure Act aims to strengthen U.S. sanctions against Iran and modify existing sanctions to address various threats posed by the country. It specifically calls for additional measures related to Iran’s support of terrorist groups like Hamas and Hezbollah, its nuclear program, and its ballistic missile development. The bill also seeks to hold Iran accountable for its actions, including the October 7th attacks on Israel, and reinforces the U.S. commitment to preventing Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles capabilities. It emphasizes a policy of maximum pressure and requires any future agreements with Iran to be ratified by the Senate as treaties.
