AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would require the Secretary of State to report to Congress listing groups that succeeded the Russian Wagner Group, such as Africa Corps, Redut PMC, and Patriot PMC, along with the people who direct them and any conduct that may qualify them for terrorism sanctions. The Comptroller General would then review that report for accuracy within 60 days. Within 30 days after that review, the State Department, working with Treasury, the Attorney General, and national intelligence officials, would decide whether listed groups or people meet the criteria for terrorism designation, and apply sanctions if so. The Secretary of State would also send Congress yearly reports for five years on these groups' activities, finances, human rights abuses, and operations, including in Venezuela and the Western Hemisphere.
