Contact Congress about H.R. 3033: Solidify Iran Sanctions Act of 2023

This bill removes the end date from the Iran Sanctions Act of 1996. The same sanctions rules would stay on the books with no automatic expiration. It also says the U.S. should fully enforce that law.

Modern Action explains legislation in plain English, helps you choose whether to support, oppose, or ask for changes, and drafts a message tied to the bill, your stance, and the elected officials who can act on it.

Solidify Iran Sanctions Act of 2023 is a House bill in Congress.

Who this affects: This bill mainly affects companies, investors, and other people or organizations whose business could fall under the Iran Sanctions Act. It also matters to U.S. officials who decide whether to impose sanctions, to allies watching U.S. policy toward Iran, and to foreign firms that weigh the risk of doing business tied to Iran.

Why this matters: This matters because it keeps one U.S. pressure tool on Iran from ending on its own. The change is about staying power, not about creating a whole new sanctions system. That could make U.S. policy look more predictable to allies and to companies that might do business tied to Iran. But the bill does not guarantee stronger enforcement or a specific foreign-policy result, because future administrations would still control how often and how hard they use the law.

Key provisions in H.R. 3033

  • The bill deletes the part of the 1996 law that would have made it expire on its own.
  • It does not change what the law covers. The same rules still apply to certain weapons activity, missile activity, and support for terrorism.
  • It says the United States should fully carry out and enforce the Iran Sanctions Act of 1996.
  • The sanctions powers would stay in place with no set end date unless a later law changes them.
  • The House passed the bill on April 16, 2024. The Senate then received it and sent it to committee.
