This proposed legislation aims to eliminate existing United States sanctions against Syria by repealing two specific Acts. It targets the Syria Accountability and Lebanese Sovereignty Restoration Act of 2003 and the Syria Human Rights Accountability Act of 2012 . By repealing these Acts, the bill would remove the statutory authority for the sanctions imposed under them, representing a significant shift in U.S. policy towards Syria. The passage of this bill would effectively dismantle the legal framework established by these two Acts for holding Syria accountable through sanctions.
