U.S. stops selling drone parts to Iran through other countries.

What it does

The bill tells three departments to stop Iran from buying drone parts. These parts are microcontrollers, GPS modules, microprocessors, and manufacturing equipment. The departments must find which companies make these parts. They must watch for people trying to sneak the parts to Iran. They must work with other countries to block these sales.

Who it affects

The bill helps protect U.S. allies from drone attacks. It does not cost regular people money or take away rights.

One thing to notice

The bill does not say how the government will catch people breaking the rules.
