Ernst, Hassan Strengthen Criminal Penalties for Violent Crimes Directed by Foreign Adversaries
Press Release
Issues: Foreign Affairs Criminal Justice
“After years of appeasement, Iran knows no bounds. Now that the regime has become so emboldened that it even attempted to assassinate President Trump, Senator Hassan and I are taking action to ensure any bad actor thinks twice before working with our adversaries or messing with any of our citizens. The bipartisan DETERRENCE Act will create severe consequences for anyone helping carry out Iran’s malign mission of ‘death to America’ and make any criminal organization think twice before targeting Americans on our own soil.”
