“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, I conclude that the circumstances that were the basis for the designation of the aforementioned organization (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. I also conclude that there is a sufficient factual basis to find that the following are additional aliases of the aforementioned organization (and other aliases): ISIS-Sinai Province, Islamic State of Iraq and ash-Sham – Sinai Province, Islamic State of Iraq and the Sham – Sinai Province, ISIS-SP, and Wilayat Sayna.”
