Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026

Passed Senate with Changes (back to House)Track

Latest action (7 Aug 2026): Passed Senate with an amendment and an amendment to the Title by Yea-Nay Vote. 86 - 11. Record Vote Number: 224.

What this bill does

I need to flag a problem before summarizing: the metadata you provided (title "Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026," sponsor Rep. Jimmy Panetta, "International Affairs" policy area, Senate vote 86-11) does not match the actual bill text included. The text itself is for a different bill entirely — the "Supporting Early-childhood Educators' Deductions Act" (SEED Act), which amends the tax code's educator expense deduction to include early childhood educators, passed the House on April 27, 2026. There's no mention of Russia, Iran, or sanctions anywhere in the provided text.

This looks like a mismatch between the bill-tracking metadata and the bill-text source (possibly a lookup/indexing error upstream, since H.R. 5334 numbers can get reused or misattributed between sources). I don't want to fabricate a sanctions-bill summary using facts that aren't in the text, nor graft the SEED Act's provisions onto the wrong title/sponsor.

Two options: 1. I summarize the bill text as given (the SEED Act) and flag that the title/sponsor/status data appears mismatched. 2. You confirm which one is correct so I can pull the right companion data.

Which would you like? If you just want a summary of the actual text provided, I can write that now, clearly noting it's the SEED Act rather than the sanctions bill named in the header.
