To hold accountable Members of Congress who advocate on behalf of a foreign person or commercial entity for the purpose of influencing or seeking a change in a law or regulation of the United States that would ease any restriction on a state sponsor of terrorism, and for other purposes.

This bill, introduced as H.R. 965, seeks to increase oversight of Members of Congress who lobby on behalf of foreign individuals or businesses to ease U.S. restrictions on countries designated as state sponsors of terrorism. Under this legislation, such actions would require lawmakers to register as foreign agents and would classify their advocacy as a prohibited form of export assistance. The practical impact is intended to prevent federal legislators from using their official influence to provide financial or regulatory benefits to foreign entities associated with sanctioned nations. Additionally, the bill suggests that any Member engaging in these activities should face internal disciplinary sanctions from the House of Representatives or the Senate.
