What’s happening with IRAN Act?

The Iran Act, known as H.R. 7380, sits in the House Committee on Foreign Affairs and the House Committee on Energy and Commerce as of April 19, 2026. These committees must hold a vote to move the bill forward, but most bills never receive a committee vote and die in this stage. This effort faces a high barrier because committee inaction is the standard outcome for most legislation.
