Senate Republicans advance the Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia Act of 2026

The legislation seeks to impose sweeping sanctions on Russia's energy and banking sectors. It also freezes the assets of top military commanders. Republican supporters are moving the bill forward as world leaders gather to honor the late Senator Graham. The proposal includes import tariffs of up to 500 percent on Russian goods. It also aims to block major institutions like Sberbank from using the U.S. financial system. Paul opposes the measure. He argued that the sanctions will fail to end the war in Ukraine. He said the penalties will instead harm American consumers. He claimed the bill will not stop Putin but will negatively impact the domestic economy.
