Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps Economic Exclusion Act

 
This bill expands sanctions against Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).
 
The President shall report to Congress regarding: 
 
 
foreign and domestic supply chains that significantly aid the IRGC; 
 
Iranian state-owned entities that provide support to terrorist entities, including Mahan Air; and 
 
foreign persons owned or controlled by the IRGC, including companies listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange or companies with a value in excess of $100 million.
 
 
 The bill states that it is U.S. policy to prevent Iran's membership in the World Trade Organization and similar international bodies as long as Iran remains a state sponsor of terrorism.
