Shadow Fleet Sanctions Act: Make Them Hear You

Make Them Hear You is a weekly commentary segment by Chris Mohr, encouraging you to make your voice heard by your legislators.

This week, Mohr discusses the Shadow Fleet Sanctions Act, Senate Bill 2904.

This bill will vastly expand US sanctions authorities to target a collection of older relight oil tankers that Russia uses to circumvent existing US sanctions on Russian oil and energy revenues. This collection of oil tankers is known as the Russian Shadow Fleet.

The shadow fleets would further discourage countries from purchasing Russian oil, which fuels Russian President Vladimir Putin’s war machine, amid Putin’s daily attacks on civilians across Ukraine.
