Summary
Chip Somodevilla/Getty Images The vote on the Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026 followed Graham's funeral service at the Washington National Cathedral. The bill also extends previously approved sanctions on Iran that were set to expire this year until 2031, restricting funding for Iran's energy and weapons sector. The Senate, in a rare bipartisan vote Tuesday night, advanced a bill that would impose harsher sanctions on Russia and buyers of Russian oil and gas than the U.S. has previously enforced and extend existing sanctions on Iran, aiming to economically squeeze the two countries amid ongoing military conflicts.
