"The United States Congress voted overwhelmingly on Thursday to suspend normal trade relations with Russia and ban the importation of Russian oil, ratcheting up the US response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine amid reports of atrocities by Russian forces.
The measures now go to President Joe Biden to be signed into law. Action by the House of Representatives came quickly after the Senate approved the two bills with unanimous 100-0 votes on Thursday.
Lawmakers strongly supported the substance of the two bills. The House passed the trade measure by a vote of 420 to 3, and the energy ban by 413 to 9. Biden had already taken executive action to ban Russian oil, liquefied natural gas and coal to the US and called on Congress in March to revoke Russia’s favoured trading status.
The legislation strengthens Biden’s hand in applying new trade penalties to Russian goods and puts the president’s ban on energy imports into law, signalling it will likely stay in place until well after any end to the war in Ukraine.
White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said Thursday the president intends to sign the legislation."
