Senator Moreno’s bill would sanction the Canadian officials responsible for the emergency and revoke their visas until the emergency has been lifted. “Thanks to Canada’s failed leadership, Ohio’s skies are seeing the worst pollution on record and Ohioans across the state are being subjected to hazardous conditions – we will not tolerate this incompetence,” said Moreno. “My bill will declare an emergency, sanction all Canadian officials responsible, and study a victims compensation fund driven by imposing additional tariffs.” Senator Moreno’s bill: Requires the President to determine if Canadian wildfires harmed U.S. air quality Sanctions Canadian officials responsible, including by blocking assets and imposing restrictions Revokes visas for individuals sanctioned under the bill Expresses a sense of Congress that the Canadian ambassador is a “persona non grata” until wildfire smoke no longer affects the United States	1	2026-08-10T06:13:07Z	2026-08-10T06:14:46Z
