Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026September 16, 2026

JOINT DEMOCRATIC LEADERSHIP STATEMENT ON H.R. 5334

“Unfortunately, the bill we voted on today, H.R. 5334, gives extraordinary power to Donald Trump. It allows him to waive the sanctions contained in the bill, while giving him new, expansive tariff authority to continue his failed global trade war that is causing costs to skyrocket for working families across America.”

2 rows here have the same law, recipient, purpose and amount as another row. The Congressional Record may print one item more than once. The count and the total include each row.

Read from the lists Congress printed for 4 laws. An item requested by several members appears under each of them, so sums across members count such an item more than once. A requester is tied to a member only when exactly one member serving in that chamber on that day has the printed name.

From a secondary source

These are records from public ad libraries, for advertisers tied to this member. We show an ad only after we save our own copy of it.

JEFFRIES FOR CONGRESS Google Ads Transparency Center

Evidence for the tie: The library lists FEC committee number C00503052 for this advertiser, and the FEC committee file names this member as that committee’s candidate.

The library lists 18 ads by this advertiser since January 3, 2025.

We have not saved our own copy of these 18 ads yet, so this page shows none of them. Cause: Google’s data file carries no words, picture or video of the ad.

Read from Google Ads Transparency Center, its data file of October 6, 2026. Meta Ad Library: Not started. An ad counts when the library last shows it on or after January 3, 2025.
