🇺🇸‼️🇷🇺 A major new U.S. sanctions bill targeting Russia is now at risk of dying in the House, despite clearing the Senate quickly and being strongly backed by Senator Lindsey Graham.
According to POLITICO, consideration of the bill has effectively stalled in the House of Representatives after Republican leadership under Speaker Mike Johnson left it off this week’s agenda. Some Republicans oppose the measure outright, while others remain undecided. As a result, POLITICO says the package may not even reach a House vote before the November elections.
The political symbolism is hard to ignore. Johnson was also central to the 2024 delay of U.S. aid to Ukraine, when military assistance was held up for months at a critical stage of the war. A repeat pattern on sanctions would once again give Moscow valuable time, weaken pressure on the Kremlin and raise fresh questions about whether U.S. political divisions are becoming one of Russia’s most effective strategic advantages.
