Congressional Scorecards
PAAIA’s Congressional Scorecards rate votes, sponsorships, and statements by members of Congress that affect and are of importance to the Iranian American community. Published biennially, the primary purpose of the scorecards is to ensure that Iranian Americans are informed of the voting records and performances of their members of Congress. In addition, the scorecard aims to hold members of Congress accountable for their votes and positions on issues of concern to the Iranian American community. The scorecard is an informational tool used by PAAIA and its affiliated organizations and does not indicate approval or disapproval of specific members of Congress.

The designation "S." refers to a bill in the Senate, while "S.Res.” refers to a resolution in the Senate. "S.J.Res" refers to a joint resolution that originated in the Senate and must be voted on in both chambers of Congress.

Civil Rights
S.Res.626 - A resolution upholding the civil liberties and civil rights of Iranian Americans and condemning bigotry, violence, and discrimination.
This resolution is one of two resolutions introduced in both chambers of Congress that condemns bigotry and acts of violence or discrimination against Iranian Americans and others, in addition to upholding the civil liberties and civil rights of Iranian Americans. The resolution acknowledges the diversity of the Iranian American community and their contributions to the socio-economic fabric of America. It recognizes that Iranian Americans serve as government officials, and in the military and law enforcement, working to uphold the constitution of the United States and to protect all Americans. It also outlines serious concerns over the CBP border incident by the Department of Homeland Security Office of Civil Rights and Civil Liberties and encourages a thorough and timely investigation into these detentions at the border. PAAIA worked closely with the sponsors to introduce these resolutions in the House and Senate following the prolonged and unlawful border detentions of Iranian Americans at the Washington Peace Arch Border Crossing earlier this year.
Primary Sponsor: Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-CT)

Status: Referred to the Committee on the Judiciary.
S.505 – The Korematsu-Takai Civil Liberties Protection Act of 2019
The Korematsu-Takai Civil Liberties Protection Act of 2019 protects the civil liberties of American citizens and prohibits imprisonment or detainment of citizens solely on the basis of race, religion, nationality, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, ethnicity or disability. The legislation ensures that American citizens will not be arbitrarily detained without due process.

U.S. - Iran Relations
S.3159 – No War Against Iran Act
This bill prohibits the use of federal funds for any use of military force against Iran without prior congressional approval. The legislation makes an exception for when there is a national emergency created by an attack upon the US. The legislation also reinforces and clarifies that no prior authorizations of military force (such as the 2001 AUMF) may be used to authorize the use of military force against Iran. The bill was introduced as a result of rising tensions between the U.S. and Iran that occurred in the beginning of 2020.
Primary Sponsors: Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT)
Co-Sponsors: 13
Status: Read twice and referred to the Committee on Foreign Relations.
S.J.Res.68– A joint resolution to direct the removal of United States Armed Forces from hostilities against the Islamic Republic of Iran that have not been authorized by Congress.
This joint resolution reasserts Congress’s constitutional authority in declaring war, sending a message to the Administration to seek congressional approval before escalating into a conflict with Iran. The resolution mandates that, if no further congressional action is taken, the Administration cease all military activity with regard to Iran in the next 30 days. The resolution was introduced as a result of rising tensions between the U.S. and Iran that occurred in the beginning of 2020.
Primary Sponsors: Sen. Tim Kaine (D-VA)
Co-Sponsors: 31
Status: Passed in the Senate 55-45. Passed in the House 227-186. Failed passage into law over presidential veto by Yea-Nay Vote of 49 – 44 in the Senate.
S.Res.539 - A resolution supporting the rights of the people of Iran to determine their future, condemning the Iranian regime for its crackdown on legitimate protests, and for other purposes.
This resolution expresses the Senate's support for the rights of the people of Iran to peacefully assemble and engage in legitimate protest. It calls on all democratic governments and institutions to clearly support the Iranian people's right to live in a free society. The resolution also “encourages the United States Government to do everything in its power to ensure the Iranian people have free and uninterrupted access to the internet,” which is one of PAAIA’s legislative priorities. This resolution was introduced in the wake of the Iranian government's intense crackdown of protests and country-wide shutdown of the internet in the fall of 2019.

Immigration
S.1123- National Origin-Based Antidiscrimination for Nonimmigrants Act or NO BAN Act
This bill repeals all iterations of the Travel, Asylum, and Refugee Bans, creates more mechanisms for any administration to undergo before enacting similar policies, and prevents religious-based discrimination of anyone seeking entry to the US. By incorporating substantive criteria and accountability, the NO BAN Act safeguards against the abuse of presidential powers and ensures that the exclusion of entry is maintained for those who pose a real threat to the US. The NO BAN Act is a meaningful and practical step forward for the Iranian American community and others that have been negatively impacted by the Travel Ban. The legislation is the most comprehensive legislation introduced to repeal the Travel Ban. PAAIA has actively opposed the Travel Ban and worked with coalition partners to draft and introduce this legislation.
Primary Sponsor: Sen. Christopher Coons (D-DE)

S.246 - A bill to block the implementation of certain presidential actions that restrict individuals from certain countries from entering the United States.

COVID-19 Related
S.3669- COVID-19 International Response and Recovery Act of 2020 (CIRRA)
This legislation aims to provide $9 billion in funding to help support existing international efforts to combat the global pandemic. Iy also calls for specific actions from both the U.S. and Iranian governments. For the U.S. government, the legislation calls on the clarification of what is permitted and prohibited under U.S. law and the expansion of humanitarian exemptions under General License E, as well as the issuance of guidelines on delivering medical supplies to Iran. For the Iranian government, the legislation requests the release of all politically held dual nationals from Iranian prisons and acceptance of U.S. offers of assistance to the Iranian people. The legislation reflects recommendations PAAIA laid out in its letter to the administration in March on steps the U.S. government can take to help enhance humanitarian assistance for the people of Iran in response to COVID-19 pandemic.

Senate Statements and Letters to the Administration on Humanitarian Exemptions for Iran during the COVID-19 Pandemic
As Iran was ravaged by the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic back in March, several Senators took the initiative to address the humanitarian crisis in Iran due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The proposals call for the expansion of humanitarian assistance to Iran, more clarity from the administration on the current regulations, and ensure that U.S. sanctions do not exacerbate the domestic health crises arising from COVID-19 in sanctioned countries. The statements and letters reflect some of PAAIA’s recommendations to expand humanitarian assistance under General License E (sanctions exemptions) as well as the issuance of guidelines on permitted activities.
In this scorecard, PAAIA focuses on legislation and congressional actions regarding US-Iran relations, civil rights, immigration, and international COVID-19 relief efforts. We have also included a "Nowruz" section for the resolution introduced in the House of Representatives that celebrates and brings awareness to Nowruz. "H.R." refers to a bill in the House of Representatives, while “H.Res." refers to a resolution in the House of Representatives. "S.J.Res" refers to a joint resolution that originated in the Senate and must be voted on in both chambers of Congress.
KEY:
House Representatives who sponsor or vote for a bill that PAAIA supports or make a statement in line with those values receive a "YEA". House Representatives who oppose a bill that PAAIA supports or make a statement supporting issues PAAIA opposes receive a "NAY".

If a member was not in the House of Representatives at the time of the bill's introduction or vote or were unable to vote given their status as a delegate, they received a "N/A" designation.

Civil Rights
H.Res.1008 – A resolution upholding the civil liberties and civil rights of Iranian Americans and condemning bigotry, violence, and discrimination.
This resolution is one of two resolutions introduced in both chambers of Congress that condemns bigotry and acts of violence or discrimination against Iranian Americans and others, in addition to upholding the civil liberties and civil rights of Iranian Americans. The resolution acknowledges the diversity of the Iranian American community and their contributions to the socio-economic fabric of America. It recognizes that Iranian Americans serve as government officials, and in the military and law enforcement, working to uphold the constitution of the United States and to protect all Americans. It also outlines serious concerns over the CBP border incident by the Department of Homeland Security Office of Civil Rights and Civil Liberties and encourages a thorough and timely investigation into these detentions at the border. PAAIA worked closely with the sponsors to introduce these resolutions in the House and Senate following the prolonged and unlawful border detentions of Iranian Americans at the Washington Peace Arch Border Crossing earlier this year.

House of Representatives Letter on Discrimination Against Iranian Americans at Peace Arch Border
Following the unlawful border detentions of Iranian Americans and green card holders at the Peace Arch Border Crossing last January, Representatives Suzan DelBene and Pramila Jayapal led efforts in Congress demanding answers from the administration. As part of these efforts, Representative DelBene authored a letter, which was signed on by 70 members of Congress, asking the Department of Homeland Security to explain why “Americans of Iranian descent” were held for secondary screenings with wait time of up to 12 hours and answer to whether the department had issues a directive to detain people of Iranian descent at the border. In a separate letter, Representative Jayapal asks the DHS and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to produce any “directives, orders, guidance, instructions, musters, whether verbal or in writing,” issued to CBP regarding the screening of individuals of Iranian descent at the border. You can read the letter here.
U.S. - Iran Relations
H.R.5543- No War Against Iran Act
This bill prohibits the use of federal funds for any use of military force against Iran without prior congressional approval. The legislation makes an exception for when there is a national emergency created by an attack upon the US. The legislation also reinforces and clarifies that no prior authorizations of military force (such as the AUMF) may be used to authorize the use of military force against Iran. The bill came as a result of rising tensions between the U.S. and Iran that occurred in the beginning of 2020.
Primary Sponsor: Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA-17)

Status: Passed the House by a Yea-Nay vote of 228-175
H.Res.752 - Supporting the rights of the people of Iran to free expression, condemning the Iranian regime for its crackdown on legitimate protests, and for other purposes.
This resolution expresses the Senate's support for the rights of the people of Iran to peacefully assemble and engage in legitimate protest. It calls on all democratic governments and institutions to clearly support the Iranian people's right to live in a free society. The resolution also “encourages the United States Government to do everything in its power to ensure the Iranian people have free and uninterrupted access to the internet,” which is one of PAAIA’s legislative priorities. This resolution was introduced in the wake of the Iranian government's intense crackdown of protests and country-wide shutdown of the internet in the fall of 2019.
Primary Sponsor: Rep. Ted Deutch (D-FL-22)
Co-Sponsors: 31
Status: Agreed to in the House by a voice vote with at least two-thirds of representatives voting in the affirmative.
H.R.2500 –Amendment 554: No Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iran in National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) of 2020
This amendment aims to prevent unauthorized war with Iran by reaffirming Congress has the sole power to declare war and clarifying that no funds from the 2020 NDAA can be used to conduct hostilities against the Iranian government without prior congressional authorization. The amendment was ultimately not included in the 2020 NDAA that passed into law despite its passage in the House.

House of Representatives Letter on Americans Detained in Iran
A bipartisan letter led by Representative Michael McCaul (R-TX-10) commends the administration for its efforts in the release of Xiyue Wang from Iranian detention. The letter also calls for continued efforts by Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and National Security Advisor Robert O’Brien to bring back American prisoners detained in Iran, including Siamak Namazi, Baquer Namazi, Michael White, and Robert Levinson.
Nowruz
H.Res.238- Recognizing the cultural and historical significance of Nowruz.
This resolution recognizes the cultural and historical significance of Nowruz and wishes Iranian Americans, the people of Iran, and all those who celebrate the holiday a prosperous new year. In addition to commemorating the Nowruz holiday, the resolution acknowledges the "lasting contributions" of Persian civilization to the world and the "noteworthy" impact Iranian Americans have had on the social and economic fabric of America. The resolution also underscores the importance of human rights and religious tolerance for not only the people of Iran, but for people everywhere, and supports the democratic aspirations of the Iranian people. It recognizes that all people are deserving of human rights and religious tolerance and have the right to “exercise freedom of assembly, freedom of expression, and freedom of speech.” PAAIA urged the introduction of the Nowruz resolution as part of broader efforts to foster greater understanding of Iranian culture, as well as project a positive image of Iranian Americans. PAAIA has actively opposed the Travel Ban and endorses this legislation.

Immigration
H.R.2214- National Origin-Based Antidiscrimination for Nonimmigrants Act or the NO BAN Act
This bill repeals all iterations of the Travel, Asylum, and Refugee Bans, creates more mechanisms for any administration to undergo before enacting similar policies, and prevents religious-based discrimination of anyone seeking entry to the US. By incorporating substantive criteria and accountability, the NO BAN Act safeguards against the abuse of presidential powers and ensures that the exclusion of entry is maintained for those who pose a real threat to the US. The NO BAN Act is a meaningful and practical step forward for the Iranian American community and others that have been negatively impacted by the Travel Ban. The legislation is the most comprehensive legislation introduced to repeal the Travel Ban. PAAIA has actively opposed the Travel Ban and worked with coalition partners to draft, introduce, and pass this legislation.

U.S. - Iran Relations S. 3517 - A Bill to Limit the Use of Funds for Kinetic Military Operations in or Against Iran This legislation aims to prohibit the use of any funding for an attack against Iran that is not authorized by Congress. This legislation cites Iran's regional behavior as a cause for the growing tensions between the United States and Iran. It also recognizes that U.S. withdrawal from the Iran Nuclear Deal accompanied by harsh rhetoric from the Trump administration has significantly increased the potential for conflict. Recognizing these potential consequences, the introduced legislation reaffirms the War Powers Act which grants Congress the sole power to declare war. Co-sponsors hope to block any escalation that could lead to an undesirable war in the Middle East. PAAIA has endorsed this legislation. Co-sponsors of this bill receive an orange o.

The legislation also expresses support for the people of Iran's right to protest without fear of governmental violence and retribution and condemns the government of Iran over its human rights violations. The resolution encourages the President, State Department and U.S. Ambassador to the UN to work with the UN Security Council and UN Human Rights Council to condemn Iran's human rights violations.

This resolution requests that the U.S. President prioritize the return of these individuals and of any U.S. citizen detained unjustly by the Iranian government.

This resolution determines that the first two iterations of the travel ban undermine the national interest of the U.S. The resolution expresses the sense of congress that the U.S. should continue to welcome and provide refuge to refugees and asylum seekers and should not ban individuals based on their nationality, race, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender.
