The White House says President Donald Trump will support a Russia sanctions bill advocated by the late Sen. Lindsey Graham. A White House official told The Hill that Trump backs the legislation, a step also reported by Bloomberg and the Financial Post. The announcement comes as lawmakers seek to advance the measure in Graham’s honor. The Hill reports that Sen. Jeanne Shaheen is leading a push in Congress to secure passage of the bill. Across the coverage, the bill is framed as aimed at increasing pressure on Russia, including to bring an end to its war against Ukraine. While the outlets agree on Trump’s support and Graham’s role in championing the sanctions package, they do not detail the bill’s full provisions in the excerpts provided. The reports indicate the White House decision is intended to strengthen congressional momentum behind the sanctions effort following Graham’s death, with support from lawmakers including Shaheen.
