At the same time, Russians are becoming increasingly exhausted by Putin’s war, which his own finance officials have told him he can’t afford. Now is the perfect time for the United States to bring down the full force of comprehensive sanctions on Russia, and I’m proud that the Senate took an important step forward today by passing this legislation.” The bill must next be passed by the U.S. House of Representatives. | 1 | 2026-08-08T05:41:38Z | 2026-08-08T05:43:24Z |
