BREAKING: The House has voted to suspend permanent normal trade relations with Russia and Belarus in a further attempt to isolate Russia economically.

The move follows President Biden's announcement last week that the at the U.S., European Union and G7 countries were moving to, and that the U.S. would take steps to ban the import of Russian seafood, diamonds and vodka, he said.

The bipartisan bill was negotiated by House Ways and Means Chairman Richie Neal of Massachusetts and Ranking Member Kevin Brady of Texas and was originally expected early last week, but Democratic leaders delayed a vote because President Biden wanted to discuss the move with allies, according to House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer. It was yet another example of moving more aggressively than the White House to seek ways to punish Russia for the invasion.

The measure also requires the U.S. Trade Representative to try to suspend Russia's participation in the World Trade Organization and stop Belarus' accession to the WTO and re-authorizes sanctions under the Global Magnitsky Human Rights Accountability Act, which will allow the U.S. to impose additional individual sanctions.
