[Public Notice: 12402]
Review of the Foreign Terrorist Organization Designation of al-Shabaab
Based upon a review of the Administrative Record assembled pursuant to Section
219(a)(4)(C) of the Immigration and Nationality Act, as amended (8 U.S.C.
1189(a)(4)(C)) (“INA”), and in consultation with the Attorney General and the Secretary
of the Treasury, the Secretary of State has determined that the circumstances that were
the basis for the designation of al-Shabaab (and other aliases) as a Foreign Terrorist
Organization have not changed in such a manner as to warrant revocation of the
designation and that the national security of the United States does not warrant a
revocation of the designation.

Therefore, the Secretary of State has determined that the designation of the
aforementioned organization, pursuant to Section 219 of the INA (8 U.S.C. 1189), shall
be maintained.

This determination shall be published in the Federal Register.

Dated: May 2, 2024.
Elizabeth H. Richard,
Coordinator for Counterterrorism.
