Bill overview
This bill, the Iran Sanctions Relief Review Act of 2021, aims to increase congressional oversight of the President’s actions regarding Iran, particularly concerning sanctions relief. It requires the President to report to Congress before terminating or waiving sanctions related to Iran or taking licensing actions that significantly alter U.S. foreign policy. Congress then has a 30-day (or 60-day during a specific period) review period to approve or disapprove the President’s actions through a joint resolution. The bill also establishes specific procedures for introducing and considering these joint resolutions, ensuring greater transparency and accountability in potential policy shifts.
