Senate approves sweeping Russia sanctions with tariff tool
TL;DR Summary
The Senate voted 86-11 to approve a broad Russia sanctions bill that would expand penalties on Moscow’s leadership, energy sector, defense suppliers, and shadow fleet, and add a 100% tariff option on top buyers of Russian oil. The measure now goes to the House in September, with President Trump signaling he would sign it if it reaches him; Democrats remain wary of granting broad tariff powers and waivers to the White House, a point of contention that could shape House negotiations.
