Trump's waiver of Russian sanctions angers Congress
Original: Trump’s decision to waive Russian sanctions outrages Congress, but no quick counter seen
President Trump has moved to waive sanctions on Russia, drawing sharp criticism from members of Congress who say the decision undermines legislative authority over sanctions policy. Outrage is bipartisan in tone, but so far lawmakers have not coalesced around a concrete or swift legislative response, leaving the immediate path to a countermeasure uncertain as debate continues in Washington.
Why now: A presidential move weakening sanctions on Russia touches a sensitive political nerve amid ongoing debate over US-Russia policy.
