Sanctions (Executive Session)

The Senate took up a Russia sanctions bill in executive session. Senator Britt, speaking for Republicans, said the bill would give the president more power to sanction people funding Russia’s war, stop countries from buying Russian oil and gas, and punish Iran. She urged its passage in honor of the late Senator Lindsey Graham, who she said had championed the legislation, and noted it was announced with senators from both parties.
