This bill mandates the Secretary of State to revoke visas and impose travel restrictions on certain individuals associated with the regimes in Venezuela, Cuba, Nicaragua, and Bolivia. These measures specifically target those responsible for human rights violations or for undermining the integrity of democracy or sovereignty in these countries. The restrictions also apply to the spouses and children of such individuals, aiming to hold accountable those who support or benefit from these authoritarian governments. The legislation identifies individuals including current and former officials of the Hugo Chavez, Nicolas Maduro, Fidel Castro, Raul Castro, Miguel Diaz-Canel, Daniel Ortega, and Evo Morales regimes, as well as Sandinista party members. It also covers anyone acting on behalf of, aiding in repression by, or assisting these regimes or parties, whether located in the United States or abroad. The imposed visa restrictions render these individuals inadmissible to the U.S., ineligible for visas, and subject to the revocation of any existing documentation and expedited removal, with a specific exception for those traveling to United Nations headquarters.
