House International Relations Committee to Markup Iran Freedom Support Act
The House Committee on International Relations will hold a hearing on March 15, 2006 in Room 2172 of the Rayburn House Office Building to markup H.R. 282, the Iran Freedom Support Act. Among other things, H.R. 282 amends the Iran and Libya Sanctions Act of 1996 by eliminating the mandatory sanction provisions on Libya, imposing mandatory sanctions on a person or entity that aids Iran in acquiring or developing weapons of mass destruction, revising multilateral regime reporting requirements, enlarging the scope of sanctionable entities and eliminating the sunset provision.
