The law was first signed in 2012, and expanded globally in 2016. This information is saying Trump has been given a list of bad guys to enforce sactions on through not letting them in the US and by freezing any US assets they can find, probably not much.
This law is okay, but we already have the no fly list, and other ways to freeze assets of criminals, or just fucking take their shit, iminent domain.
The addendum added was for specific visa sanctions and additional financial sactions, as a money laundering company was guilty and just paid a fine of a few million dollars before transfering assets abroad. It was written to attack the russian corruption in the business world.
