Senators Tim Kaine (D-VA), Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) and their colleagues in pressing the Trump Administration about its decision to ease sanctions on Russian and Iranian oil exports. In a letter to President Donald Trump, the Senators called out the administration’s lack of planning regarding the economic fallout from President Trump’s war against Iran. “We write with deep concern and confusion over your administration’s recent decision to ease sanctions on Russian and Iranian oil exports,” the senators wrote. The administration’s lack of strategic cohesion on the war in Iran is having a direct impact on the economy and is endangering our servicemembers. Now that those impacts are being felt in Americans’ pocketbooks, your administration is scrambling – and failing – to contain this fallout.
