Stricter U.S. visas for some UN envoys
This bill would add a new reason to deny U.S. visas to some United Nations representatives. If a UN envoy is under U.S. sanctions under Executive Order 13876, they could be denied entry. The rule would use that order as it stood on September 16, 2025. This would affect those foreign officials and would not change U.S. household taxes or benefits.
