## Summary

**Urges the European Union to designate the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as a terrorist organization under EU Common Position 2001/931/CFSP.** It would also push the U.S. executive branch to treat that EU designation as a diplomatic priority and welcomes allied efforts toward similar listings. - European Union officials would face explicit U.S. House pressure to act "expeditiously" under Common Position 2001/931/CFSP, increasing political momentum for an EU listing. - The U.S. executive branch would be encouraged to make EU designation of the IRGC a diplomatic priority in U.S.-EU engagements, focusing bilateral talks on coordinated action. - International partners and allies would see House support for multilateral designation efforts, reinforcing diplomatic coordination aimed at the IRGC. - The resolution signals increased diplomatic pressure on the IRGC by urging broader international steps to classify it as a terrorist entity.
