Plain-English summary
Expresses the sense of the Congress that the President should: (1) condemn the arrest of the 13 Iranian Jews by Iranian authorities for spying and the unfair procedures employed against them leading up to, and during, their trials and demand their immediate release; and (2) make it clear that Iran's treatment of such individuals is a benchmark for determining the nature of current and future U.S.-Iran relations, that concessions already made may be rescinded in light of Iran's conduct of these cases, and that the outcome of such cases will help determine Iran's standing in the community of nations and its eligibility for loans and other financial assistance from international financial institutions.
