22 Bipartisan House Representatives Are Pushing Back Against Putin. Here's Who They Are.
Russia will not stop its war in Ukraine unless it faces real costs. And it cannot sustain that war without access to Western financial systems, energy markets, and the global economy — all of which remain open to the Kremlin while Ukrainian cities burn.
H.R. 6856, the Peace Through Strength Against Russia Act of 2025, is the most comprehensive Russia sanctions bill introduced in the House this Congress. It targets Russian officials, oligarchs, financial institutions, and state enterprises.
The bill was introduced on December 18, 2025, by Congressman Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA). Since then, the bill has continued to grow — gaining cosponsors from both parties across the country. That is real momentum. But it needs more — and it needs a floor vote.
It closes the loopholes that keep Russian energy revenues flowing. And it sends an unmistakable message: aggression will not be rewarded.

Republicans. Democrats. Twenty-two voices united by one conviction: Russia must face real consequences for its continued war of aggression against Ukraine — and Congress cannot afford to wait.
Is Your Representative on the List?
If your Representative hasn't signed on — contact them today.
Tell them H.R. 6856 matters. Tell them that while diplomacy continues, Congress cannot afford to stand by. Every barrel of Russian oil sold, every dollar cleared through a Moscow bank, every oligarch flying untouched — these are not technicalities. They are lifelines for a war machine targeting Ukrainian civilians and threatening the stability of an entire continent.
The bill can move.
The floor vote can happen.
But it needs more cosponsors — and it needs your Representative's name on the list.
