AI Summary

This bill aims to expand sanctions on foreign persons that are officials, agents, or affiliates of, or owned or controlled by, Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). It amends the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012 to require the President to identify and impose sanctions on such foreign persons, including those who have attempted to conduct certain "sensitive transactions or activities" on behalf of the IRGC. The bill also defines key terms, such as "foreign person" and "own or control," and sets penalties for violations. Additionally, it establishes a sunset provision for the waiver authority on the imposition of sanctions, which will expire on December 31, 2025.
