Our legislation will levy severe sanctions on institutions and groups that facilitate or financially support these horrific programs.” In addition to Senator Sullivan, this legislation, led by Senators Tom Cotton (R-Arkansas) and Tim Scott (R-South Carolina), was cosponsored by Senators Ted Cruz (R-Texas), Pete Ricketts (R-Nebraska), Ted Budd (R-North Carolina), Eric Schmitt (R-Missouri), Marco Rubio (R-Florida), Bill Hagerty (R-Tennessee), Kevin Cramer (R-North Dakota), Rick Scott (R-Florida), John Cornyn (R-Texas), and Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina).
