Bipartisan group of lawmakers demands Biden seize Iranian oil and gas shipments, enforce Trump-era program
Fox News
A group of 12 senators, including five Democrats, wrote to President Biden on Wednesday, demanding he order his administration to begin seizing Iranian oil and gas shipments.
"When HSI seizes and processes Iranian oil, 75% of seizure revenues are allocated to the U.S. Victims of State Sponsored Terrorism Fund," the senators wrote to Biden. "It is unacceptable that a U.S. government program, which makes the United States and its allies safer, provides funds to remediate the victims of terrorism, and generates income for the United States in a cost-effective manner has been allowed to languish." Thomas Catenacci is a politics writer for Fox News Digital.
"The failure to support HSI’s Iranian oil seizure and disruption operations in FY22, despite available funds, is a policy choice that must be reversed," they continued. "United States sanctions should be enforced to the fullest extent of the law."
