H.R.5709
Introduced:
November 14, 2014
113
Second
December 9, 2014
Referred to House (sub)committee
Like the identical measure in the Senate, S. 2672 of 7/28/14, this bill would remove the president’s ability to waive existing sanctions (effectively reinstating all of them), codify existing sanctions imposed by executive order, and require congressional approval for funding the negotiations. Such approval was qualified by the requirement for certification that Iran had freed all U.S. ‘prisoners of conscience who are being unjustly held’ and demonstrated its renouncement of state-sponsored terrorism.
1 cosponsor (1R).
Last major action: 12/9/14 Referred to the Subcomm. on Crime, Terrorism, Homeland Security, and Investigations.
