Iran China Accountability Act
This bill prohibits the use of funds to enter into any negotiation with Iran regarding an Iran nuclear agreement until the President makes specified certifications concerning the actions of China and Iran.
Specifically, the President must certify that China has ceased incarcerating Uighur individuals in the Xinjiang region. Additionally, the President must certify that, among other actions, Iran has terminated all agreements involving the receipt of funds from China and all ties and transfer of cash to Iranian proxy forces, including Hamas.
Further, any Iran nuclear agreement that the United States enters into must certify the destruction of any and all Iranian nuclear and missile capabilities, weapons, infrastructure, chemical weapons, and offensive cyber activity. Such agreement shall be deemed a treaty requiring advice and consent of the Senate.
To impose certain requirements relating to the renegotiation or reentry 
into the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action or other agreement relating 
           to Iran's nuclear program, and for other purposes.

    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
United States of America in Congress assembled,

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Iran China Accountability Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds the following:
            (1) The 2015 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) 
        provided Iran with over $100,000,000,000 in sanctions relief, 
        circumventing mandatory sanctions imposed by the Congress of 
        the United States.
            (2) The Obama Administration delivered $400,000,000 in cash 
        to Iran in 2016.
            (3) President Trump wisely removed the United States from 
        the disastrous JCPOA on May 8, 2018, and implemented a campaign 
        of maximum economic pressure on Iran until the regime ends its 
        nuclear program, its pursuit of ballistic missiles, its support 
        of terrorism and regional destabilization, and releases all 
        United States hostages.
            (4) Iran and China signed a 25-year strategic economic 
        cooperation agreement on March 27, 2021.
            (5) This agreement involves a transfer of $400,000,000,000 
        from the Chinese Communist Party to the Iranian Government.
            (6) The Chinese Communist Party is committing an ongoing 
        genocide against Uighur Muslims in the Xinjiang region and 
        suppressing religious freedom across the country.
            (7) The Chinese Communist Party is also suppressing 
        religious freedom by wrongly imprisoning Christians, raiding 
        house churches, and attempting to shut down houses of worship 
        not endorsed by the government.
            (8) The Iranian government is perpetrating violence against 
        its own people, including through the killing of protesters, 
        and the persecution of women and religious minorities. It is 
        also involved in severe violations of human rights throughout 
        the Middle East, including supporting the brutal Assad regime 
        in Syria.
            (9) China has increased its purchases of oil from Iran, in 
        violation of United States sanctions, in the past few months. 
        Such oil sales would be permitted if the United States lifts 
        sanctions on Iran and re-enters the failed Iran nuclear deal.
            (10) The failed Iran nuclear deal required that the United 
        Nations arms embargo on Iran expire in October 2020, which 
        permits China to sell arms to Iran, and permits Iran to sell 
        arms to China.
            (11) The United States Government unequivocally condemns 
        the Hamas-incited terrorist attacks originating from Israeli 
        land currently occupied by Hamas.
            (12) The United States Government recognizes Israel's right 
        to defend itself from Hamas-incited terrorist attacks.

        region;

                    (A) all agreements involving the transfer of funds 
                to such Government from China; and

                or security partnership with China;

    (b) Requirement for Contents of Agreement.--No Federal funds may be 
authorized to be appropriated or otherwise made available for United 
States entry into any Iran nuclear agreement, and the President may not 
take any action (including in the form of an agenda, agreement, 
platform, or plan) to carry out the goals of such an agreement, unless 
such agreement certifies the destruction of any and all Iranian nuclear 
and missile capabilities, weapons, infrastructure, chemical weapons, 
and offensive cyber activity.
    (c) Ratification Required.--Notwithstanding any other provision of 
law, any Iran nuclear agreement shall be deemed a treaty for purposes 
of the requirement of the advice and consent of the Senate to 
ratification. The President may not take any action (including in the 
form of an agenda, agreement, platform, or plan) to carry out the goals 
of such an agreement until the Senate has adopted a resolution of 
advice and consent to such ratification.
    (d) Report Required.--The Secretary of State shall submit to 
Congress, prior to the submission of a proposed Iran nuclear agreement
