It shall be the policy of the United States, in interpreting the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, that nothing in the JCPOA limits or curtails the ability of Congress to pass sanctions legislation to address future Iranian human rights abuses. It is the sense of Congress that the Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control should be fully funded to ensure strict enforcement of sanctions against Iranian actors that commit human rights abuses, and to ensure effective re-imposition of sanctions in the event of violation or breach by Iran of the JCPOA.
United States sanctions applicable with respect to persons, unless designated by name in Attachments 3 or 4 of Annex II of the JCPOA, under Executive Order 13553, Executive Order 13606, or sections 2 or 3 of Executive Order 13628, as in effect on the day before the date of the enactment of this section, shall remain in effect until the President makes public the notification described in subsection (d). The notification described in this subsection is one that provides a justification in writing for removing sanctions applicable to an Iranian person sanctioned pursuant to Executive Order 13553, Executive Order 13606, or section 2 or 3 of Executive Order 13628, and is submitted in a timely manner.
Nothing in this section shall be construed to limit the authority of the President pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers Act ( 50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq. ), the Comprehensive Iran Sanctions, Accountability, and Divestment Act of 2010 ( 22 U.S.C. 8501 et seq. ), or any other provision of law.
