A bipartisan group of senators introduced legislation on Tuesday requiring President Obama to report on countries that harbor Hezbollah and determine whether they're doing all they can to snuff out the Shiite militia.

The Hezbollah International Financing Prevention Act of 2014, introduced by Sens. Jeanne Shaheen, D-N.H., and Marco Rubio, R-Fla., closely tracks House legislation first revealed by Al-Monitor in March, but puts more pressure on foreign countries to take action against Hezbollah, which the State Department deems a terrorist group.

The Senate bill, like the House version, calls for sanctions against financial institutions — including central banks — that knowingly facilitate Hezbollah's illicit activities, including money laundering, and targets providers that knowingly transmit the militia's propaganda channel, Al-Manar TV. It also requests the president consider adding Hezbollah to the list of significant narcotics traffickers or significant transnational criminal organizations, both designations that would give the government more authorities to target the group.

The Senate bill goes a step further, however, by requiring that the president provide Congress within 90 days of enactment with a list of "countries in which Hezbollah maintains important portions of its global logistics networks" as well as a list of "countries in which Hezbollah, or any of its agents or affiliates, conducts significant fundraising, financing, or money laundering activities."
