Bill > HR5932

This bill, the Fortify Israel Act, aims to authorize additional assistance to Israel using assets confiscated from Iran. The key provisions include: 1. Prohibiting the release or mobilization of any Iranian assets blocked or immobilized by the Department of the Treasury before the enactment of this Act, unless the President certifies that hostilities between Hamas, other Iranian-backed groups, and Israel have ceased, and either Israel has been fully compensated for resulting harms or Iran is participating in an international mechanism to discharge its obligations to Israel. 2. Allowing the President to confiscate any Iranian assets subject to U.S. jurisdiction, including certain assets in South Korea, and deposit the funds into a non-interest-bearing account to be used for the procurement of defense articles and services for Israel. 3. Exempting the confiscation of Iranian assets from judicial review, while preserving the ability for private individuals or entities to assert due process claims in U.S. courts. 4. Ensuring that the authorities provided by this bill are not exercised in a manner inconsistent with the United States' obligations under various international agreements, such as the Vienna Conventions on Diplomatic and Consular Relations.
