S. 1241: Sanctioning russia Act of 2025 (Senate)
russia keeps attacking Ukraine despite repeated calls for peace. Sen. Lindsey Graham's bill would make the President decide every 90 days whether russia is refusing peace talks, breaking a deal, invading again or trying to topple Ukraine's government. If so, it would require tariffs of at least 500 percent on russian goods and on goods from countries trading in its oil, gas or uranium, and freeze U.S. assets of russia's leaders and state banks. It drew 84 cosponsors; its revised text, S. 5025, became law through H.R. 5334.
