Polisario Front Terrorist Designation Act of 2026

This bill would require the Secretary of State to report to Congress within 90 days of enactment, and every year after, on whether the Polisario Front has cooperated with Iranian-affiliated terrorist organizations, including Hezbollah. Each report must determine whether the group gave or received armed support, weapons, drones, anti-aircraft systems, or military intelligence. The first report would cover the prior 10 years, and the determination must be unclassified. If the report finds such cooperation, the President must, within 30 days, designate the Polisario Front as a foreign terrorist organization and impose terrorism-related sanctions on it.
