Capitol agenda: Senate launches push for Graham’s final bill
The Senate advanced legislation targeting Russia with expanded sanctions, a key priority for the late Sen. Lindsey Graham, with an 86-12 vote. The bill, backed by President Trump, faces remaining hurdles in the Senate and House, including tariff-related amendments from Sens. Rand Paul and Ron Wyden. Ukrainian President Zelenskyy emphasized the bill's importance for pressuring Russia and signaling support to Ukraine.
