Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026, today made this statement on President Donald J. Trump signing the legislation into law. Senator Graham was in attendance today at the White House when President Trump signed the bill. “The Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026 is now the law of the land. I am grateful to President Trump for swiftly signing this important legislation. He and his team worked diligently with Congress to get this across the finish line. It will give President Trump additional tools to aid his noble effort to bring the Russia-Ukraine war to a close and allows him to keep up the strong economicpressure on the Iranian regime,” said Senator Darline Graham. Graham concluded, “I wish Lindsey were here to celebrate this historic day. I know he would be so proud. Lindsey believed this bill, which he worked on for well over a year, would help end the war through squeezing Putin economically and forcing his customers to reevaluate their relationship with Russia. I am confident that the sanctions and other measures contained in this legislation will do that and further increase the President’s negotiating leverage to secure a lasting peace.” The Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026 supports President Trump’s efforts to bring about a peaceful end to the Russia-Ukraine war and allows President Trump to continue to apply economic pressure to the Iranian regime. By increasing the President’s negotiating leverage, these sanctions and other measures will help drive Putin to the peace table. The Lindsey O.
