What this bill would do
This bill, known as the No Oil Profits for Enemies Act of 2026'' or the NOPE Act of 2026,'' seeks to amend the Countering America's Adversaries Through Sanctions Act. It expands the scope of actions that Congress can review regarding sanctions against the Russian Federation. Specifically, it includes Executive orders related to the national emergency declared in Executive Order 14024. It also adds oversight for actions or licensing involving Russian crude oil, petroleum products, natural gas, or other energy products. This review period continues until officials certify that Russia has ended its war in Ukraine and committed to a just peace settlement including compensation for damages.
