                                 A BILL


 
    To provide a framework for consideration by the legislative and 
          executive branches of unilateral economic sanctions.

    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
United States of America in Congress assembled,

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Enhancement of Trade, Security, and 
Human Rights through Sanctions Reform Act''.

SEC. 2. PURPOSE.

    It is the purpose of this Act to establish an effective framework 
for consideration by the legislative and executive branches of 
unilateral economic sanctions.

SEC. 3. STATEMENT OF POLICY.

    It is the policy of the United States--
            (1) to pursue United States interests through vigorous and 
        effective diplomatic, political, commercial, charitable, 
        educational, cultural, and strategic engagement with other 
        countries, while recognizing that the national security 
        interests of the United States may sometimes require the 
        imposition of economic sanctions on other countries;
            (2) to foster multilateral cooperation on vital matters of 
        United States foreign policy, including promoting human rights 
        and democracy, combating international terrorism, proliferation 
        of weapons of mass destruction, and international narcotics 
        trafficking, and ensuring adequate environmental protection;
            (3) to promote United States economic growth and job 
        creation by expanding exports of goods, services, and 
        agricultural commodities, and by encouraging investment that 
        supports the sale abroad of products and services of the United 
        States;
            (4) to maintain the reputation of United States businesses 
        and farmers as reliable suppliers to international customers of 
        quality products and services, including United States 
        manufactures, technology products, financial services, and 
        agricultural commodities;
            (5) to avoid the use of restrictions on exports of 
        agricultural commodities as a foreign policy weapon;
            (6) to oppose policies of other countries designed to 
        discourage economic interaction with countries friendly to the 
        United States or with any United States national, and to avoid 
        use of such measures as instruments of United States foreign 
        policy; and
            (7) when economic sanctions are necessary--
                    (A) to target them as narrowly as possible on those 
                foreign governments, entities, and officials that are 
                responsible for the conduct being targeted, thereby 
                minimizing unnecessary or disproportionate harm to 
                individuals who are not responsible for such conduct; 
                and
                    (B) to the extent feasible, to avoid any adverse 
                impact of economic sanctions on the humanitarian 
                activities of United States and foreign nongovernmental 
                organizations in a country against which sanctions are 
                imposed.

SEC. 5. GUIDELINES FOR UNILATERAL ECONOMIC SANCTIONS LEGISLATION.

    Any bill or joint resolution that imposes any unilateral economic 
sanction, or authorizes the imposition of any unilateral economic 
sanction by the executive branch, and is considered by the House of 
Representatives or the Senate, should--
            (1) state the foreign policy or national security objective 
        or objectives of the United States that the economic sanction 
        is intended to achieve;
            (2) provide that the economic sanction terminate 2 years 
        after it is imposed, unless specifically reauthorized by 
        Congress;
            (3) provide for contract sanctity;
            (4) provide authority for the President both to adjust the 
        timing and scope of the sanction and to waive the sanction, if 
        the President determines it is in the national interest to do 
        so;
            (5)(A) target the sanction as narrowly as possible on 
        foreign governments, entities, and officials that are 
        responsible for the conduct being targeted; and
            (B) seek to minimize any adverse impact on the humanitarian 
        activities of United States and foreign nongovernmental 
        organizations in any country against which the sanction may be 
        imposed; and
            (6) provide, to the extent that the Secretary of 
        Agriculture or the Congressional Budget Office finds that--
                    (A) the proposed sanction is likely to restrict 
                exports of any agricultural commodity or is likely to 
                result in retaliation against exports of any 
                agricultural commodity from the United States, and
                    (B) the sanction is proposed to be imposed, or is 
                likely to be imposed, on a country or countries that 
                constituted, in the preceding calendar year, the market 
                for more than 3 percent of all export sales from the 
                United States of an agricultural commodity,
        that the Secretary of Agriculture expand agricultural export 
        assistance under United States market development, food

        commodities identified by the Secretary.
    (g) Report by the United States International Trade Commission.--
Before imposing a unilateral economic sanction, the President shall

involving the United States.
