    US House of Representatives to Consider Russia Sanctions Bill Starting September 14

    The US House of Representatives may begin consideration of a bill on additional sanctions against Russia from September 14, according to Republican Congressman Don Bacon. The bill, which allows for tariffs of up to 100% on goods of the largest buyers of Russian energy resources, has faced resistance from Democrats who fear it could grant Donald Trump excessive tariff powers. Republicans, who control the House, have no immediate plans to consider the bill. The Graham bill on 'hellish sanctions' against Russia has stalled in the House due to concerns it would expand Trump's tariff powers and increase oil prices, and is unlikely to be voted on before the November midterm elections.
