Ted Cruz Revives Push to Label Muslim Brotherhood as Terror Group

US Senator Ted Cruz has introduced the Muslim Brotherhood Terrorist Designation Act of 2025, a bill aimed at labeling certain branches of the Islamist group as Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTOs).

The legislation mandates the US State Department to identify and designate violent offshoots, catalog all global branches, and enforce financial sanctions.

With backing from conservative advocacy groups and fellow Republicans, the bill represents Cruz’s most comprehensive effort yet to legally target the Muslim Brotherhood’s global network.
