Sens. Jeanne Shaheen, D-N.H., and Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., on Friday urged the Trump administration not to renew a waiver that shields buyers of Russian oil from U.S. sanctions, the senators said.
“Tonight, when the current license for Russian oil expires, it should not be renewed,” Shaheen said.
Warren joined Shaheen in the call to the administration, the senators said.
The senators said the waiver is set to expire just after midnight Saturday.
