Today is a reminder of why the U.S.-Israel partnership matters for national security. The threats posed by Iran and its proxies like Hamas don't stop at Israel's borders. Shared intelligence and a joint defense make both nations safer. 2/3

We vow to never forget the atrocities Israelis suffered on 10/7 and stand with Israel and our allies around the world as they face threats from terrorists and authoritarian regimes. 3/3.

On the 3rd anniversary of the October 7 massacre, we pray for the survivors and for the families of those murdered by brutal terrorists who sought death and destruction, targeting children, women, the elderly, and other innocent civilians. 1/3

Today is a monumental day for peace. This legislation was deeply important to my brother, Lindsey, and I’m grateful that it achieved such a wide coalition of support on the House floor. I am committed to achieving a peaceful resolution to the war in Ukraine, and I’m confident that this legislation will pave the way. I sincerely appreciate Rep. McCaul’s leadership and determination in getting this across the finish line. I’m also thankful for the work of my Senate co-leads, Senators Blumenthal, Shaheen, Britt and Wicker. Their support never wavered. I would also like to thank President Trump and his team for diligently collaborating with Congress on this legislation. This bill assists President Trump in his noble efforts to bring the Russia-Ukraine war to a close and allows President Trump to keep applying strong economic pressure on the Iranian regime.
🚨 I'm proud to announce the House just passed the Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026 by a vote of 262 to 159 — fulfilling one of Sen. Graham's final wishes. This bill will cripple the Russian war machine and finally bring Putin to the negotiating table. And it will ensure America’s adversaries — not only Russia, but also China and Iran — suffer for their coordinated campaign of aggression. 262 members the House voted not just for Ukraine, but for freedom and democracy. Today, we are one step closer to securing Lindsey’s vision of enduring peace in Ukraine and beyond.

Yesterday's bipartisan 262-159 House vote was an important step for more than Russia sanctions. The bill also includes a version of the Solidify Iran Sanctions Act, an effort @FDDAction has supported to ensure critical Iran sanctions authorities don't expire at the end of this year. As @SenatorTimScott noted, preserving these authorities will help sustain economic pressure on Tehran. More on why this matters👇🏼 fddaction.org/policy-alerts/…
In a fitting tribute to Lindsey Graham, the House has passed the Russia and Iran sanctions bill he championed.

It includes a version of my Solidify Iran Sanctions Act, extending key Iran sanctions authorities that will help enable Operation Economic Outcast and hold all our adversaries to account.

The bill now heads to @POTUS.

🚨 The House just passed the Graham Russia and Iran sanctions bill 262-159 with major bipartisan backing. We’ve supported this bill since it was first introduced last year. Now POTUS needs to sign the bill into law and begin using these authorities against Putin’s war machine.

The Trump Admin has a historic opportunity in the Western Hemisphere to make lasting homeland and regional security gains and create economic opportunities at home and across the region. Grateful to @ReaganInstitute for the opportunity to contribute to this year's RISG volume.

Turkey is NOT OUR FRIEND. Just this past week, @SecScottBessent had to crack down on them for actively funding Iranian terrorists who are killing our servicemen and women. This is about keeping our country and our families safe. We cannot rest until anyone with ties to the evil Iranian regime is held accountable—no matter who they are.
Today, as part of Operation Economic Outcast, Treasury severed the Iranian regime’s critical financial lifelines in Türkiye. The Office of Foreign Assets Control designated Türkiye-based Golden Global Bank and its subsidiaries, which have facilitated tens of millions of dollars’ worth of transactions for the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps-Qods Force and provide the Iranian regime with key correspondent banking access that allows it to move its funds internationally.

🚨The FDD Action-endorsed GUARD Act just passed subcommittee markup. It’s an important step to protect America from Chinese-controlled tech. Our @APaolozziMoore explains: “The GUARD Act of 2026 closes a real and growing gap in our national security framework by bringing foreign-made robotics communications equipment under the same scrutiny we already apply to other sensitive technologies. Robots that navigate our physical spaces, collect sensor data, and operate autonomously present unique risks when produced or controlled by entities beholden to adversarial governments. Congress should move swiftly to advance this bill. The threats it addresses are not hypothetical, and the window to act is narrowing.”
Chairman @RepMoolenaar's GUARD Act was just passed by the @HouseCommerce Communications and Technology subcommittee!

Grateful to introduce the bipartisan SRBIJA Act! Under President Vucic, Serbia has deliberately drifted further from Rule of Law and nearer to enemies of freedom like War Criminal Putin, the Chinese Communist Party, and the terrorist regime in Tehran. Despite widespread protest of corruption, the Vucic government threatens to destabilize the region and beyond. The people of Serbia deserve better. thehill.com/homenews/house/6…

Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Pakistan's Mecca Pact is more economics than defense. Trump launched an "unprecedented" economic war on Iran as its oil exports cratered. DOD was ordered to cut South Korea military exercises. We break it down & flag what Congress can do. Read it all👇
