H.R.6338

The Stop Illegal Fishing Act mandates sanctions against foreign persons and vessels involved in illegal, unreported, and unregulated fishing.

The Stop Illegal Fishing Act aims to combat illegal, unreported, and unregulated fishing by authorizing the President to impose sanctions on foreign persons and vessels involved in such activities. These sanctions include blocking assets and prohibiting transactions. The Act also mandates inadmissibility and visa revocation for individuals associated with illegal fishing. Exceptions are made for humanitarian assistance and certain national security activities. The President may waive sanctions if deemed important to national security interests.
