H.R. 9552: No Oil Profits for Enemies Act of 2026 (119th Congress) Bill Summary

This bill would change how Congress reviews certain U.S. sanctions on Russia, especially those tied to energy and oil revenues. In simple terms, it would make it harder for sanctions related to Russian energy products to be eased without Congress having a chance to review them.

What the bill changes

It updates the rules under the Countering America’s Adversaries Through Sanctions Act so that more actions involving sanctions on Russia are covered by congressional review.
It specifically adds executive orders related to the national emergency declared in Executive Order 14024 to the list of actions subject to review.
It creates special review rules for sanctions actions involving crude oil, petroleum products, natural gas, and other Russian energy products.

Energy-related sanctions review

For sanctions actions involving Russian energy products, the bill says congressional review protections would apply until the Secretary of State, working with the Treasury Secretary, Defense Secretary, and Director of National Intelligence, certifies to Congress that:

the Russian government has ended its war in Ukraine, and
it has credibly committed to a just peace settlement that includes compensation for Ukraine’s war damages.

Limited exceptions

The bill allows certain exceptions for actions involving Russian energy products if they are needed:

to protect the health or safety of an energy transport vessel’s crew,
for emergency repairs or environmental protection/cleanup related to such a vessel, or
to address an urgent economic harm in a foreign country other than Russia.

Plain-language effect

Overall, the bill would give Congress more oversight over U.S. sanctions decisions affecting Russia, with a particular focus on energy-related sanctions and licensing decisions. It appears aimed at limiting the executive branch’s ability to relax or modify those sanctions without congressional review until certain conditions related to the war in Ukraine are met.
