The West Bank Violence Prevention Act of 2025 authorizes the President to impose sanctions on foreign individuals and entities responsible for violence, property destruction, or terrorism in the West Bank that threatens U.S. national security and undermines prospects for a two-state solution. Sanctions include freezing assets in the United States and denying entry visas to targeted individuals. The law applies to those who commit acts of violence against civilians, destroy property, seize land, commit terrorism, or lead organizations engaging in these activities. The President must report to Congress every 180 days on sanctions imposed, individuals granted waivers, and violence assessments in the West Bank. The law includes exceptions for authorized intelligence activities, humanitarian aid, and situations involving U.S. international obligations, and allows the President to waive or terminate sanctions if individuals cease harmful conduct.
