Quiver AI Summary

Congresswoman Elise Stefanik has called on Attorney General Pam Bondi to investigate Standard Chartered Bank's alleged illicit payments to known terrorists, criticizing New York AG Tish James for her inaction amid the scandal. In her letter, Stefanik emphasized that without immediate action, the case may expire soon, risking further funding to terrorist entities.

Stefanik highlighted that Standard Chartered Bank reportedly funneled at least $9.6 billion to terrorists, including through transactions related to Iranian oil. She expressed concern that James was briefed on these issues by experts yet chose to approve the bank's annual license.

To address the national security risks, Stefanik requested that the Acting U.S. Attorney for New Jersey be appointed as Special Attorney to oversee matters related to Standard Chartered Bank. The letter is available for public viewing via a provided link.
