Biden is imposing more than 500 new sanctions against Russia. As well as new export restrictions on nearly 100 entities to combat sanctions evasion.
It is the largest single sanctions package since the invasion began.
I wish Congress would pass legislation to use frozen Russian assets for Ukraine as well.
"[the Ukraine aid bill] provides urgent funding for Ukraine. It also invests in America’s own defense industrial base. It passed overwhelmingly in the Senate, and there is no question that, if the Speaker called a vote, it would pass quickly in the House. Congress knows that by supporting this bill, we can strengthen security in Europe, strengthen our security at home, and stand up to Putin. Opposing this bill only plays into his hands."
