Sewell Votes to Suspend Normal Trade Relations with Russia, Ban the Importation of its Oil | 2022-04-07 | 2022 | 2022-04 | Democrat | House | AL | Terri A. Sewell | S001185 | sewell.house.gov | sewell | https://sewell.house.gov/press-releases | scraper | Washington, D.C. – Today, U.S. Rep. Terri Sewell (AL-07) voted for additional measures to hold Putin accountable for his unprovoked and bloody war in Ukraine and further isolate Russia from the world. A bill to suspend normal trade relations with Russia passed the House of Representatives by a vote of 420 to 3. A measure to ban the importation of Russian oil passed by a vote of 413 to 9. Having passed the Senate unanimously, both of these bills will now make their way to President Biden’s desk to be signed into law. “As a member of the House Ways and Means Committee, I worked closely with my colleagues on these two measures which would hold Russia accountable for its unprovoked war in Ukraine and leave it weakened economically, militarily, and diplomatically. I was pleased to see these bills pass with overwhelming support. We must continue to stand with the Ukrainian people as they defend democracy.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T02:19:30Z |
