Restrict arms sales after further violations or insufficient reforms

Under Murray’s bill, a country would be barred from U.S. arms sales for ten years if it commits further violations during its three-year designation period, is designated a second time within ten years, or fails to make sufficient progress on reforms. The country would have to stop using U.S.-provided weapons or return them. The bill would also allow the ban to end early.

Context: The bill provides for a mechanism for early termination of the ban, but the source does not describe its terms.
