Bill Summary
AN ACT To designate Ansarallah as a foreign terrorist organization and impose certain sanctions on Ansarallah, and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This bill designates Ansarallah, commonly referred to as the Houthis, as a foreign terrorist organization (FTO) and imposes sanctions on them and their affiliates. It requires the Secretary of State to designate Ansarallah as an FTO within 90 days, and the President to impose sanctions such as blocking their property and transactions, and making them inadmissible to the United States. The bill cites Houthi attacks on global shipping in the Red Sea, including against U.S. sailors, as well as their use of advanced weapons and support from Iran as grounds for the designation and sanctions. The bill provides some exceptions, such as for intelligence activities and to comply with international obligations.
