What this bill would do

The West Bank Violence Prevention Act of 2025 aims to prevent violence in the West Bank. It authorizes the President to impose sanctions on foreign persons who endanger United States national security or undermine the prospects for a two-state solution through illegal violent acts. These acts include targeting civilians, destroying property, or engaging in terrorism. Sanctions may include asset blocking and the revocation of visas or admission to the United States. The President also has the authority to waive these sanctions if it serves national security interests.
