[Public Notice: 12813]


Foreign Terrorist Organization Designation of Los Choneros and 
Los Lobos

    Based upon a review of the Administrative Records assembled in this 
matter, and in consultation with the Attorney General and the Secretary 
of the Treasury, I have concluded that there is a sufficient factual 
basis to find that the relevant circumstances described in section 219 
of the Immigration and Nationality Act, as amended (hereinafter 
``INA'') (8 U.S.C. 1189), exist with respect to: Los Choneros (also 
known as The Choneros, Aguilas, Fatales); and Los Lobos (also known as 
The Lobos, Los Lobos Drug Trafficking Organization).
    Therefore, I hereby designate the aforementioned organizations and 
their respective aliases as Foreign Terrorist Organizations pursuant to 
section 219 of the INA.
    This determination shall be published in the Federal Register. The 
designations go into effect upon publication.

    Dated: August 6, 2025.
Marco Rubio,
Secretary of State.
