## Summary

**Countering Hezbollah and Iranian proxy networks in Latin America.** This bill would require the Secretary of State and other U.S. agencies to assess whether any country, region, or jurisdiction in Latin America is a "terrorist sanctuary" and would authorize visa bans and automatic visa revocations for officials tied to those sanctuaries, while urging allies to use financial pressure. - Latin American governments and allies would face U.S. pressure to investigate and adopt laws to combat Hezbollah, using Argentina's designation approach as a blueprint and coordinating with bodies like the Financial Action Task Force. - Government officials tied to designated sanctuaries would be ineligible for U.S. visas and have current visas revoked. Limited presidential waivers are allowed and sanctions would terminate after five years. - U.S. agencies would carry out an interagency assessment within 180 days and report results to six congressional committees, increasing coordination among State, Treasury, Homeland Security, Justice, and intelligence offices.
