Summary of Bill SRES 81
Bill 119 S.Res. 81 is a resolution introduced in the US Congress calling on the United Kingdom, France, and Germany (also known as the E3) to take action to reinstate sanctions on Iran under United Nations Security Council Resolution 2231 from 2015. The resolution urges the E3 countries to initiate the "snapback" mechanism, which allows for the re-imposition of sanctions if Iran is found to be in violation of its commitments under the nuclear deal.

It also highlights the need for the international community to address Iran's destabilizing activities in the region, including its support for terrorist groups and its ballistic missile program.

It underscores the importance of maintaining a united front with US allies in addressing the Iranian threat. Overall, Bill 119 S.Res. 81 is a non-partisan call for the E3 countries to take action to enforce sanctions on Iran and uphold the terms of the nuclear deal. It reflects a commitment to addressing Iran's behavior through diplomatic means and international cooperation.
