This bill would require the President to designate the Muslim Brotherhood as a foreign terrorist organization and impose strict sanctions against it and its affiliated branches worldwide. The legislation directs the Secretary of State to submit annual reports to Congress identifying all Muslim Brotherhood branches globally and determining whether they meet criteria for terrorist designation under existing law. Within 90 days of enactment, the President must impose sanctions on the Muslim Brotherhood itself, and within 30 days of each subsequent State Department report, sanctions must be imposed on any affiliated branches meeting terrorist criteria. The bill also bars foreign individuals identified as Muslim Brotherhood members from obtaining U.S. visas, entering the country, or maintaining existing visas. The sanctions cannot be removed for at least four years once imposed, and the legislation applies to numerous countries where Muslim Brotherhood branches allegedly operate, including Egypt, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and others that have already designated the organization as terrorist.

H.R. 3583 would require military funeral honors details to recite the "13 Folds of Honor"—a symbolic narrative about the meaning of each fold of the American flag—when presenting the flag to the family of a deceased service member or veteran. The bill amends federal law to make this recitation standard practice across all military funerals, though families would have the option to decline the recitation if they choose. The legislation carries no fiscal cost and includes no new funding or implementation timeline, instead amending existing law that governs military funeral honors ceremonies. The bill is dedicated to the 13 service members killed in the 2021 bombing at Hamid Karzai International Airport in Kabul, Afghanistan.
