Delegation of Authority Under the Global 
                Magnitsky Human Rights Accountability Act

                Memorandum for the Secretary of State [and] the 
                Secretary of the Treasury

                By the authority vested in me as President by the 
                Constitution and the laws of the United States of 
                America, including section 301 of title 3, United 
                States Code, I hereby make the following delegations:

                I delegate to the Secretary of the Treasury the 
                authority to administer financial sanctions under 
                section 1263 of the Global Magnitsky Human Rights 
                Accountability Act (Public Law 114-328) (the ``Act''). 
                In exercising the authority delegated by this 
                memorandum, the Secretary of the Treasury will 
                coordinate with the Secretary of State.

                I also delegate to the Secretary of State the authority 
                to administer visa sanctions under section 1263 of the 
                Act.

                The delegations in this memorandum shall apply to any 
                provision of any future public law that is the same or 
                substantially the same as section 1263 of the Act.

                The Secretary of State is authorized and directed to 
                publish this memorandum in the Federal Register.
