This bill makes permanent the sanctions imposed by Executive Order 14115, which targets individuals undermining peace and stability in the West Bank. It reinstates sanctions that were revoked by the Trump administration and requires the President to notify Congress at least 15 days before lifting sanctions on any designated person, unless urgent circumstances apply.
The bill locks in sanctions on Israeli settlers and officials documented as perpetrating violence against Palestinians in the West Bank, reversing a Trump-era rollback. Congressional approval would prevent future presidents from unilaterally removing these sanctions without legislative action and advance accountability for West Bank destabilization.
