In this episode of The Weekly Congressional Report, we explore H.R. 8046, the Rosatom Sanctions Enforcement Act, a bill that aims to sever the United States’ dependency on Russia’s nuclear energy sector amid the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. This legislation imposes sanctions targeting Russia’s state-owned nuclear energy corporation, Rosatom, to disrupt its revenue streams and diminish its influence globally.
Join Brian Barnes as our AI hosts, Avery and Iris, unpack the details of this bill, discussing the potential impacts on the nuclear industry, the international implications for allies reliant on Russian nuclear technology, and the steps outlined for the U.S. to aid allies in finding alternative nuclear suppliers. Tune in to understand the critical facets of this legislation and the broader geopolitical stakes at play.
