Summary of Bill HRES 739
On September 11, 2023, Bill 118 HRES 739 was submitted to Congress for consideration. This bill aims to disapprove of the waiver of sanctions on Iran. The waiver of sanctions on Iran was a decision made by the President, but Congress has the power to review and potentially overturn this decision.
The bill is significant because it addresses the complex issue of US-Iran relations and the use of sanctions as a tool for diplomacy.

However, some argue that sanctions can harm innocent civilians and may not always be effective in achieving their intended goals.
If passed, Bill 118 HRES 739 would signal Congress's disapproval of the waiver of sanctions on Iran. This could have implications for US foreign policy and relations with Iran. It is important for Congress to carefully consider the potential consequences of overturning the waiver and to weigh the benefits and drawbacks of maintaining or lifting sanctions on Iran. Overall, Bill 118 HRES 739 is a significant piece of legislation that highlights the ongoing debate over US-Iran relations and the use of sanctions as a diplomatic tool. Congress will need to carefully consider the implications of this bill and make a decision that aligns with the best interests of the United States and the international community.
