Referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs, and in addition to the Committees on the Judiciary, Financial Services, Ways and Means, Oversight and Government Reform, Energy and Commerce, and Rules, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
The Peace Through Strength Against Russia Act of 2025 establishes comprehensive economic and diplomatic sanctions against Russia and individuals or entities supporting Russian government operations and military aggression. The bill requires the President to review and impose sanctions every 180 days on Russian officials and their supporters, with penalties including asset freezes, visa revocations, and vessel seizures, while also prohibiting U.S. citizens and financial institutions from purchasing Russian government bonds immediately upon enactment and authorizing tariffs up to 500 percent on Russian imports including energy products within 30 days. The legislation bars certain Russian-connected individuals from entering the United States and subjects them to immediate visa revocation, and it establishes criminal and civil penalties for sanctions violations through enforcement mechanisms under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. The bill defines key terms necessary for implementation, such as "military invasion" covering ground, air, naval, cyber, and missile attacks, and identifies 19 critical infrastructure sectors in Ukraine as protected targets. A severability clause ensures the law remains enforceable even if individual provisions are challenged in court.
