Global Magnitsky Act, A Valuable Tool, Woefully Underutilized

Question for the masses:

Global Magnitsky Act has been signed into law in 2016, yet is only starting to get implemented now. Despite a potentially infinite number of candidates, it is not being used all that much. Most of the sanctions against truly bad actors is based off of their terrorist activity, illicit military action, or nuclear proliferation.

Why do you suppose we don't utilize available actions for enforcement to the full extent? By the way, if there are any specific entities or individuals from any country you would like to "nominate" for consideration, please feel free to send to me publicly or privately. I'm also posting this on the blog.
