SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Iran Human Rights Sanctions Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) Iran voted in the United Nations General Assembly on 
        December 10, 1948, to adopt the Universal Declaration of Human 
        Rights, thereby committing to guarantee the ``life, liberty, 
        and security of person'' of all people and rejecting ``cruel, 
        inhuman, or degrading treatment or punishment''.
            (2) The Constitution of the Islamic Republic of Iran 
        guarantees certain human rights and fundamental freedoms, 
        including political and civil rights, along with economic, 
        social, and cultural rights, including a prohibition on torture 
        and a guarantee of sentencing according to the law.
            (3) The Islamic Republic of Iran is a party to 4 major 
        United Nations human rights treaties: the Convention on the 
        Rights of the Child (which it ratified on July 13, 1994), the 
        International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of 
        Racial Discrimination (which it ratified on August 29, 1968), 
        and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights 
        and the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural 
        Rights (both of which it ratified on June 24, 1975).
            (4) The Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran is 
        violating its international and constitutional obligations to 
        respect the human rights and fundamental freedoms of its 
        citizens, including by--
                    (A) using torture and cruel, inhuman, or degrading 
                treatment or punishment, including flogging, and 
                amputations;
                    (B) carrying out an increasingly high rate of 
                executions in the absence of internationally recognized 
                safeguards, including public executions and executions 
                of juvenile offenders;
                    (C) using stoning as a method of execution and 
                maintaining a high number of persons in prison who 
                continue to face sentences of execution by stoning;
                    (D) carrying out arrests, violent repression, and 
                sentencing of women exercising their right to peaceful 
                assembly, a campaign of intimidation against women's 
                rights defenders, and continuing discrimination against 
                women and girls;
                    (E) permitting or carrying out increasing 
                discrimination and other human rights violations 
                against persons belonging to religious, ethnic, 
                linguistic, or other minorities;
                    (F) imposing ongoing, systematic, and serious 
                restrictions of freedom of peaceful assembly and 
                association and freedom of opinion and expression, 
                including the continuing closures of media outlets, 
                arrests of journalists, and the censorship of 
                expression in online forums such as blogs and websites; 
                and
                    (G) imposing severe limitations and restrictions on 
                freedom of religion and belief, including by carrying 
                out arbitrary arrests, indefinite detentions, and 
                lengthy jail sentences for those exercising their 
                rights to freedom of religion or belief and proposing a 
                provision in a draft penal code that sets out a 
                mandatory death sentence for apostasy, the abandoning 
                of one's faith.
            (5) On June 19, 2009, the United Nations High Commissioner 
        for Human Rights expressed concerns about the increasing number 
        of arrests not in conformity with the law and the illegal use 
        of excessive force in responding to protests following the June 
        12, 2009, elections in Iran, resulting in at least dozens of 
        deaths and hundreds of injuries.
            (6) On August 1, 2009, authorities in the Islamic Republic 
        of Iran began a mass trial of more than 100 individuals in 
        connection with election protests, most of whom were held for 
        weeks, in solitary confinement, with little or no access to 
        their lawyers or families, and many of whom showed signs of 
        torture or abuse.
            (7) The Supreme Leader of Iran issued a statement on 
        October 28, 2009, effectively criminalizing dissent in the 
        aftermath of the national election of June 12, 2009.
            (8) On November 4, 2009, security forces in the Islamic 
        Republic of Iran used brutal force to disperse thousands of 
        protesters, resulting in a number of injuries and arrests, in 
        violation of international standards regarding the 
        proportionate use of force against peaceful demonstrations.
            (9) At least 8 citizens of Iran were killed and an 
        undetermined number were injured on December 27, 2009, when 
        security forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran violently broke 
        up peaceful gatherings during the Ashura holiday.
            (10) The Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran has 
        recently sentenced numerous Iranian citizens to death without 
        due process for politicized crimes relating to the peaceful 
        demonstrations that followed the June 12, 2009, elections, 
        including ``waging war against God'', and has begun carrying 
        out those execution sentences, including the death by hanging 
        of 2 individuals on January 28, 2010.

SECTION 1. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds that--
            (1) there is no Federal program to support family 
        caregivers;
            (2) most older individuals and persons with mental 
        retardation and related developmental disabilities (as defined 
        in section 102 of the Developmental Disabilities Assistance and 
        Bill of Rights Act (42 U.S.C. 6000) (referred to in this 
        section as ``developmental disabilities'')) prefer to receive 
        care in their homes, rather than in institutions;
            (3)(A) more than 22,000,000 family caregivers actively care 
        for aging or ailing older individuals in the United States;
            (B) fewer than 2,000,000 older individuals receive care 
        through nursing homes in the United States; and
            (C) therefore, a large portion of the care provided for the 
        Nation's older individuals is provided by family caregivers;
            (4)(A) there are an estimated 3,170,000 persons with mental 
        retardation and related developmental disabilities in the 
        United States;
            (B) 1,890,000 of individuals with mental retardation and 
        related developmental disabilities live with family caregivers;
            (C) 479,862 of individuals with mental retardation and 
        related developmental disabilities who are living at home 
        receive care from caregivers who are 60 years old or older; and
            (D) like services for the elderly population, a large 
        portion of supports and care for persons with mental 
        retardation and related developmental disabilities is provided 
        by family caregivers;
            (5) nearly 75 percent of family caregivers are women, many 
        of whom have other major responsibilities, such as young 
        children or jobs;
            (6) the loss in productivity of businesses due to necessary 
        absences of caregiving employees ranges from $11,000,000,000 to 
        $29,000,000,000 a year;
            (7) family caregivers offer support that is worth billions 
        of dollars;
            (8) without the efforts of family caregivers, many 
        additional older individuals, and persons with mental 
        retardation and related developmental disabilities, would 
        receive care services in a hospital, State facility, 
        intermediate care facility for the mentally retarded, or 
        nursing home, or would receive, although less costly, home and 
        community-based waiver services under section 1915(c) of the 
        Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1396n(c)), such a result being 
        far more expensive for taxpayers than assisting family 
        caregivers since--
                    (A) the Federal medicare and medicaid programs pay 
                for a large portion of expenses associated with such 
                institutional care; and
                    (B) such institutional care is more expensive than 
                family caregiving;
            (9) caregivers, on average, spend $2,000 per year for food, 
        medication, and other expenses related to caregiving;
            (10)(A) caregiving is physically demanding and emotionally 
        draining to provide, with as many as 30 percent of caregivers 
        reporting physical or mental health problems due to caregiving; 
        and
            (B) caregivers need resources that will support and help 
        ease the overwhelming burden that the caregivers are expected 
        to shoulder on a daily basis; and
            (11) with millions of baby boomers set to retire in the 
        near future, it is crucial to begin preparing today for what 
        will be dramatically increased long-term care needs of older 
        individuals.
