Requires the President to label the Houthi movement as a foreign terrorist group.

This bill would require the President to officially label the Houthi movement, also known as Ansarallah, as a foreign terrorist organization. This designation would trigger sanctions under existing law. It would also require the President to report to Congress on whether certain individuals are connected to the group.

What Would Change

Today, the Houthi movement, also known as Ansarallah, is not officially listed as a foreign terrorist organization by the U.S. government. If this bill passes, the President would be required to make that official designation within 30 days, which would trigger U.S. sanctions against the group. The President would also need to report to Congress on the connections of specific individuals to the Houthi movement.

Key Provisions
