Introduced 2026-04-09Summary
AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would cancel two Treasury Department licenses that allow the delivery and sale of Russian crude oil and petroleum products already loaded on ships as of March 2026, including one covering sales to India. It would bar the Treasury Secretary from authorizing future transactions for the sale, delivery, or offloading of Russian oil. Within 30 days, the President would have to impose sanctions, including asset blocking and visa bans, on Russian persons involved in oil and gas extraction, refining, or shipping, with exceptions for humanitarian aid and certain U.S. security activities. The State Department would have to report regularly to Congress on Russian oil exports, prices, revenue, and production, and on any role of Russian state energy companies in abducting or deporting Ukrainian civilians, including children.
