Plain-English Summary
The proposal would remove existing economic and trade penalties that the United States has placed on Syria, allowing American companies and individuals to do business with the Syrian government and economy again. This would affect American businesses, workers in trade-related industries, and could change how the U.S. relates to Syria internationally. The bill is currently under review by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.
