This bill strengthens and extends U.S. sanctions against Nicaragua's government under President Daniel Ortega through 2030, targeting the regime's economic sectors that fund the ruling family, including newly added focus on gold mining and military social security institutions. The legislation expands grounds for sanctions to cover religious persecution (particularly against the Catholic Church), prosecution of political prisoners and opposition members, human rights abuses, and support for Russia's invasion of Ukraine. It also prohibits U.S. persons from making new investments in Nicaragua and requires the State Department to work with international partners—including Canada, the European Union, Latin America, and multilateral development banks—to coordinate sanctions and restrict loans to the Nicaraguan government. Additionally, the bill directs the U.S. to support international human rights investigations through the United Nations, funds democracy and human rights programs for Nicaraguan opposition groups, and mandates annual reviews of Nicaragua's participation in the U.S.-Central America-Dominican Republic Free Trade Agreement, with provisions allowing the President to lift sanctions once the country achieves free elections, ceases violence against civilians, and conducts investigations into protest killings.
