Bill Summary · HR 2453

Overview: Bill Number: HR 2453, Title: To continue Executive Order 14224 in effect indefinitely, Status: Introduced in House, Introduced: March 27, 2025

Purpose and Intent: This bill seeks to make permanent an existing executive order that imposes sanctions and other restrictions on individuals and entities engaged in human rights abuses, corruption, and other destabilizing activities.

Key Provisions:
- Codifies Executive Order 14224, which was originally issued in 2017, into permanent law
- Maintains the ability to impose asset freezes, travel bans, and other penalties on designated individuals and organizations
- Requires the President to regularly review and update the list of sanctioned parties

Affected Parties and Impacts:
- Individuals and entities currently or potentially subject to sanctions under the executive order would continue to be affected
- The U.S. government would retain the authority to target human rights violators and corrupt actors indefinitely
- The permanent nature of the sanctions could provide more stability and predictability for enforcement efforts

Procedural and Timeline Considerations:
- The bill has been introduced in the House and referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs
- If enacted, the provisions of Executive Order 14224 would continue in effect without a sunset date
