"The House and Senate reached a deal Saturday to slap Russia with fresh sanctions and give Congress new veto power to block any easing of those sanctions -- an agreement that could send a new bill to President Donald Trump's desk before the end of the month.
House
and Senate negotiators announced an agreement was reached Saturday
morning for a bill that would include new sanctions against Russia,
Iran, and North Korea.
Despite
the White House lobbying for changes to the measure, the legislation
will give Congress a new ability to block the administration from easing
sanctions on Moscow. Democrats and some Republicans have expressed
concerns that Trump is considering giving Russia back two compounds in
Maryland and New York that were seized by the Obama administration in
December."
