This bill mandates the President to designate Ansarallah , also known as the Houthi movement, as a foreign terrorist organization (FTO) within 30 days of the Act's enactment. This designation would be made pursuant to section 219 of the Immigration and Nationality Act, triggering specific sanctions against the group. Following the FTO designation, the President must then determine, within another 30 days, whether three specific individuals—Abdul Malik al-Houthi, Abd al-Khaliq Badr al-Din al-Houthi, and Abdullah Yahya al-Hakim—are officials, agents, or affiliates of Ansarallah. The legislation's overarching goal is to impose sanctions on the group and its leadership due to their involvement in acts of international terrorism.
