Ben Cardin: “Last week, the intelligence community found that Mr. Putin did, indeed, direct efforts to interfere in our elections.”

If Putin hates this so much, we're sure that there are a lot of other dictators who would hate this as well.

Thank you very much for holding this hearing on the implementation of Global Magnitsky sanctions.

I introduced the Sergei Magnitsky Rule of Law Accountability Act as a way of saying that we will hold abusers accountable even if their own country does not.
