Designation of Certain Muslim Brotherhood Chapters as Foreign Terrorist Organizations and Specially Designated Global Terrorists

[EO 14362] is an executive action signed by President (name not specified in the order) that starts a formal process to consider certain Muslim Brotherhood chapters for designation under U.S. terrorism and sanctions laws (Sec. 1). The order directs the Secretary of State and the Secretary of the Treasury to prepare a joint report after consulting with the Attorney General and the Director of National Intelligence (Sec. 3(a)). It then directs the Secretary of State or the Secretary of the Treasury to take appropriate designation actions under the Immigration and Nationality Act and the International Emergency Economic Powers Act and Executive Order 13224 (Sec. 3(b)). This matters because the order aims to deprive targeted chapters of resources and reduce threats to U.S. citizens and partners (Sec. 2; Sec. 1).
