Iran Sanctions

A focus of Iran-related legislation in the 111th Congress has been to expand the provisions of the Iran Sanctions Act (ISA) to apply to sales to Iran of gasoline and related equipment and services. For at least ten years after it was enacted, ISA had caused differences of opinion between the United States and its European allies because it mandates U.S. imposition of sanctions on foreign firms. Successive Administrations have sought to ensure that the congressional sanctions initiative does not hamper cooperation with key international partners whose support is needed to adopt stricter international sanctions. This concern was incorporated, to a large extent, in the Comprehensive Iran Sanctions, Accountability, and Divestment Act of 2010 (CISADA, P.L. 111- 195). As an indication that U.S. allies are now aligning with the U.S. position on sanctioning Iran, the European Union, on July 27, 2010, adopted sanctions against Iran, targeting its energy and financial sector. Bills: H.R. 2194
