unprecedented surge in overdose deaths in the United 10
States, fracturing families and communities, and ne-11
cessitating a comprehensive policy response to combat 12
its lethal flow and to mitigate the drug’s devastating 13
consequences; 14 88
•HR 815 EAH
(2) the trafficking of fentanyl into the United 1
States is a national security threat that has killed 2
hundreds of thousands of United States citizens; 3
(3) transnational criminal organizations, in-4
cluding cartels primarily based in Mexico, are the 5
main purveyors of fentanyl into the United States 6
and must be held accountable; 7
(4) precursor chemicals sourced from the People’s 8
Republic of China are— 9
(A) shipped from the People’s Republic of 10
China by legitimate and illegitimate means; 11
(B) transformed through various synthetic 12
processes to produce different forms of fentanyl; 13
and 14
(C) crucial to the production of illicit 15
fentanyl by transnational criminal organiza-16
tions, contributing to the ongoing opioid crisis; 17
(5) the United States Government must remain 18
vigilant to address all new forms of fentanyl precur-19
sors and drugs used in combination with fentanyl, 20
such as Xylazine, which attribute to overdose deaths 21
of people in the United States; 22
(6) to increase the cost of fentanyl trafficking, 23
the United States Government should work collabo-24
ratively across agencies and should surge analytic ca-25 89

respect to transnational criminal organizations (in-2
cluding cartels), including foreign nationals who fa-3
cilitate the trade in illicit fentanyl and its precursors 4

SEC. 101. FINDINGS; SENSE OF CONGRESS. 12
(a) F
INDINGS.—Congress makes the following findings: 13
(1) On February 24, 2022, the Government of the 14
Russian Federation violated the sovereignty and ter-15
ritorial integrity of Ukraine by engaging in a pre-16
meditated, second illegal invasion of Ukraine. 17
(2) The international community has condemned 18
the illegal invasions of Ukraine by the Russian Fed-19
eration, as well as the commission of the crime of ag-20
gression, war crimes, crimes against humanity, and 21
genocide by officials of the Russian Federation, in-22
cluding through the deliberate targeting of civilians 23
and civilian infrastructure, the forcible transfer of 24
children, and the commission of sexual violence. 25 111
•HR 815 EAH
(3) The leaders of the G7 have called the Russian 1
Federation’s ‘‘unprovoked and completely unjustified 2
attack on the democratic state of Ukraine’’ a ‘‘serious 3
violation of international law and a grave breach of 4
the United Nations Charter and all commitments 5
Russia entered in the Helsinki Final Act and the 6
Charter of Paris and its commitments in the Buda-7
pest Memorandum’’. 8
(4) On March 2, 2022, the United Nations Gen-9
eral Assembly adopted Resolution ES–11/1, entitled 10
‘‘Aggression against Ukraine’’, by a vote of 141 to 5. 11
That resolution ‘‘deplore[d] in the strongest terms the 12
aggression by the Russian Federation against 13
Ukraine in violation of Article 2(4) of the [United 14
Nations] Charter’’ and demanded that the Russian 15
Federation ‘‘immediately cease its use of force against 16
Ukraine’’ and ‘‘immediately, completely and uncondi-17
tionally withdraw all of its military forces from the 18
territory of Ukraine within its internationally recog-19
nized borders’’. 20
(5) On March 16, 2022, the International Court 21
of Justice issued a provisional measures order requir-22
ing the Russian Federation to ‘‘immediately suspend 23
the military operations that it commenced on 24 Feb-24
ruary 2022 in the territory of Ukraine’’ and, in this 25 112
•HR 815 EAH
regard, observed that ‘‘orders on provisional measures 1
. . . have binding effect’’. 2
(6) On November 14, 2022, the United Nations 3
General Assembly adopted a resolution— 4
(A) recognizing that the Russian Federation 5
has committed a serious breach of the most fun-6
damental norms of international law and its 7
gross and systematic refusal to obey its obliga-8
tions has affected the entire international com-9
munity; 10
(B) recognizing the need for the establish-11
ment, in cooperation with Ukraine, of an inter-12
national mechanism for compensation for finan-13
cially assessable damages caused by the Russian 14
Federation’s internationally wrongful acts; and 15
(C) recommending ‘‘the creation . . . of an 16
international register of damage to serve as a 17
record . . . of evidence and claims information 18
on damage, loss or injury to all natural and 19
legal persons concerned, as well as the State of 20
Ukraine, caused by internationally wrongful acts 21
of the Russian Federation in or against Ukraine 22
. . . .’’. 23
(7) The Russian Federation bears international 24
legal responsibility for its aggression against Ukraine 25 113
•HR 815 EAH
and, under international law, must cease its inter-1
nationally wrongful acts. Because of this breach of the 2
prohibition on aggression under international law, 3
the United States is legally entitled to take counter 4
measures that are proportionate and aimed at induc-5
ing the Russian Federation to comply with its inter-6
national obligations. 7
(8) Approximately $300,000,000,000 of Russian 8
sovereign assets have been immobilized worldwide. 9
Only a small fraction of those assets, 1 to 2 percent, 10
or between $4,000,000,000 and $5,000,000,000, are re-11
portedly subject to the jurisdiction of the United 12
States. 13
(9) The vast majority of immobilized Russian 14
sovereign assets, approximately $190,000,000,000, are 15
reportedly subject to the jurisdiction of Belgium. The 16
Government of Belgium has publicly indicated that 17
any action by that Government regarding those assets 18
would be predicated on support by the G7. 19
(b) S
ENSE OFCONGRESS.—It is the sense of Congress 20
that, having committed an act of aggression, as recognized 21
by the United Nations General Assembly on March 2, 2022, 22
the Russian Federation is to be considered as an aggressor 23
state. The extreme illegal actions taken by the Russian Fed-24
eration, including an act of aggression, present a unique 25 114
•HR 815 EAH
situation, justifying the establishment of a legal authority 1
for the United States Government and other countries to 2
confiscate Russian sovereign assets in their respective juris-3
dictions. 4
SEC. 102. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING IMPORTANCE 5
OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION PROVIDING 6
COMPENSATION TO UKRAINE. 7
It is the sense of Congress that— 8
(1) the Russian Federation bears responsibility 9
for the financial burden of the reconstruction of 10
Ukraine and for countless other costs associated with 11
the illegal invasion of Ukraine by the Russian Fed-12
eration that began on February 24, 2022; 13
(2) the most effective ways to provide compensa-14
tion for the damages caused by the Russian Federa-15
tion’s internationally wrongful acts should be assessed 16
by an international mechanism charged with deter-17
mining compensation and providing assistance to 18
Ukraine; 19
(3) at least since November 2022 the Russian 20
Federation has been on notice of its opportunity to 21
comply with its international obligations, including 22
to make full compensation for injury, or, by agree-23
ment with Ukraine, to authorize an international 24 115
•HR 815 EAH
mechanism to resolve issues regarding compensation 1
to Ukraine; 2
(4) the Russian Federation can, by negotiated 3
agreement, participate in any international process 4
to assess the damages caused by the Russian Federa-5
tion’s internationally wrongful acts and make funds 6
available to compensate for these damages, and if it 7
fails to do so, the United States and other countries 8
should explore all avenues for ensuring compensation 9
to Ukraine; 10
(5) the President should lead robust engagement 11
on all bilateral and multilateral aspects of the re-12
sponse by the United States to acts by the Russian 13
Federation that undermine the sovereignty and terri-14
torial integrity of Ukraine, including on any policy 15
coordination and alignment regarding the 16
repurposing or ordered transfer of Russian sovereign 17
assets in the context of determining compensation and 18
providing assistance to Ukraine; 19
(6) as part of the robust engagement on bilateral 20
and multilateral responses to acts by the Russian 21
Federation that undermine the sovereignty and terri-22
torial integrity of Ukraine, the President should en-23
deavor to facilitate creation of, and United States 24
participation in, an international mechanism regard-25 116
•HR 815 EAH
ing the repurposing or seizure of sovereign assets of 1
the Russian Federation for the benefit of Ukraine. 2
(7) the repurposing of Russian sovereign assets is 3
in the national interests of the United States and con-4
sistent with United States and international law; 5
(8) the United States should work with inter-6
national allies and partners on the repurposing of 7
Russian sovereign assets as part of a coordinated, 8
multilateral effort, including with G7 countries and 9
other countries in which Russian sovereign assets are 10
located; and 11
(9) any effort by the United States to confiscate 12
and repurpose Russian sovereign assets should be un-13
dertaken alongside international allies and partners 14
as part of a coordinated, multilateral effort, including 15
with G7 countries, the European Union, Australia, 16
and other countries in which Russian sovereign assets 17
are located. 18

•HR 815 EAH
SEC. 2. IMPOSITION OF SANCTIONS ON IRAN’S SUPREME 1
LEADER’S OFFICE, ITS APPOINTEES, AND ANY 2
AFFILIATED PERSONS. 3
(a) F
INDINGS.—Congress finds the following: 4
(1) The Supreme Leader is an institution of the 5
Islamic Republic of Iran. 6
(2) The Supreme Leader holds ultimate author-7
ity over Iran’s judiciary and security apparatus, in-8
cluding the Ministry of Intelligence and Security, law 9
enforcement forces under the Interior Ministry, the Is-10
lamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), and the 11
Basij, a nationwide volunteer paramilitary group 12
subordinate to the IRGC, all of which have engaged 13
in human rights abuses in Iran. Additionally the 14
IRGC, a United States designated Foreign Terrorist 15
Organization, which reports to the Supreme Leader, 16
continues to perpetrate terrorism around the globe, 17
including attempts to kill and kidnap American citi-18
zens on United States soil. 19
(3) The Supreme Leader appoints the head of 20
Iran’s judiciary. International observers continue to 21
criticize the lack of independence of Iran’s judicial 22
system and maintained that trials disregarded inter-23
national standards of fairness. 24
(4) The revolutionary courts, created by Iran’s 25
former Supreme Leader Ruhollah Khomeini, within 26 197
•HR 815 EAH
Iran’s judiciary, are chiefly responsible for hearing 1
cases of political offenses, operate in parallel to Iran’s 2
criminal justice system and routinely hold grossly un-3
fair trials without due process, handing down pre-4
determined verdicts and rubberstamping executions 5
for political purpose. 6
(5) The Iranian security and law enforcement 7
forces engage in serious human rights abuse at the be-8
hest of the Supreme Leader. 9
(6) Iran’s President, Ebrahim Raisi, sits at the 10
helm of the most sanctioned cabinet in Iranian his-11
tory which includes internationally sanctioned rights 12
violators. Raisi has supported the recent crackdown 13
on protestors and is a rights violator himself, having 14
served on a ‘‘death commission’’ in 1988 that led to 15
the execution of several thousand political prisoners 16
in Iran. He most recently served as the head of Iran’s 17
judiciary, a position appointed by Iran’s current Su-18
preme Leader Ali Khamenei, and may likely be a po-19
tential candidate to replace Khamenei as Iran’s next 20
Supreme Leader. 21
(7) On September 16, 2022, a 22-year-old 22
woman, Mahsa Amini, died in the detention of the 23
Morality Police after being beaten and detained for 24
allegedly transgressing discriminatory dress codes for 25 198
•HR 815 EAH
women. This tragic incident triggered widespread, 1
pro-women’s rights, pro-democracy protests across all 2
of Iran’s 31 provinces, calling for the end to Iran’s 3
theocratic regime. 4
(8) In the course of the protests, the Iranian se-5
curity forces’ violent crackdown includes mass arrests, 6
well documented beating of protestors, throttling of the 7
internet and telecommunications services, and shoot-8
ing protestors with live ammunition. Iranian security 9
forces have reportedly killed hundreds of protestors 10
and other civilians, including women and children, 11
and wounded many more. 12
(9) Iran’s Supreme Leader is the leader of the 13
‘‘Axis of Resistance’’, which is a network of Tehran’s 14
terror proxy and partner militias materially sup-15
ported by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps 16
that targets the United States as well as its allies and 17
partners. 18
(b) S
ENSE OFCONGRESS.—It is the sense of Congress 19
that— 20
(1) the United States shall stand with and sup-21

(2) the United States shall continue to hold the 24
Islamic Republic of Iran, particularly the Supreme 25 199
•HR 815 EAH
Leader and President, accountable for abuses of 1
human rights, corruption, and export of terrorism; 2

This division may be cited as the ‘‘Holding Iranian 4

SEC. 2. FINDINGS. 6
The Congress finds the following: 7
(1) Iran is characterized by high levels of official 8
and institutional corruption, and substantial involve-9
ment by Iran’s security forces, particularly the Is-10
lamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), in the 11
economy. 12
(2) The Department of Treasury in 2019 des-13
ignated the Islamic Republic of Iran’s financial sector 14
as a jurisdiction of primary money laundering con-15
cern, concluding, ‘‘Iran has developed covert methods 16
for accessing the international financial system and 17
pursuing its malign activities, including misusing 18
banks and exchange houses, operating procurement 19
networks that utilize front or shell companies, exploit-20
ing commercial shipping, and masking illicit trans-21
actions using senior officials, including those at the 22
Central Bank of Iran (CBI).’’. 23
(3) In June 2019, the Financial Action Task 24
Force (FATF) urged all jurisdictions to require in-25 252
•HR 815 EAH
creased supervisory examination for branches and 1
subsidiaries of financial institutions based in Iran. 2
The FATF later called upon its members to introduce 3
enhanced relevant reporting mechanisms or system-4
atic reporting of financial transactions, and require 5
increased external audit requirements, for financial 6
groups with respect to any of their branches and sub-7
sidiaries located in Iran. 8
(4) According to the State Department’s ‘‘Coun-9
try Reports on Terrorism’’ in 2021, ‘‘Iran continued 10
to be the leading state sponsor of terrorism, facili-11
tating a wide range of terrorist and other illicit ac-12
tivities around the world. Regionally, Iran supported 13
