CUFI Action Fund Welcomes President Trump’s Designation of IRGC as an FTO

WASHINGTON – On Monday, the Christians United for Israel (CUFI) Action Fund released a statement expressing support for the Trump Administration’s designation of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as a Foreign Terrorist Organization.

“In 2017, we welcomed the Treasury Department’s designation of the IRGC for their support of terrorist organizations, and we now welcome the Trump Administration’s designation of the IRGC as an FTO. The Islamic Republic is a theocratic dictatorship and the IRGC is the core source of their power. From subjugating the Iranian people to supporting terrorists and rogue regimes, the IRGC is the backbone of Tehran’s tyranny. We must put maximum pressure on Iran and designating the IRGC as an FTO is a good step in that direction,” said CUFI Action Fund Chairwoman Sandra Parker.

The CUFI Action Fund, a non-profit 501 (c) (4), nonpartisan organization, serves as the public policy arm of the nation’s largest pro-Israel organization, Christians United for Israel. The Action Fund is dedicated to ensuring the millions of Christian Zionists across the country have their voices heard in our nation’s capital each and every day.
