U.S. Senators Marco Rubio and Chuck Grassley have introduced the Halting Enrichment of Russian Oligarchs and Industry Allies of Moscow's Schemes to Leverage its Abject Villainy Abroad (HEROIAM SLAVA) Act, which would impose sweeping sanctions on all Russian state-owned enterprises., Rubio's press service reported.

"The HEROIAM SLAVAAct, named after the iconic Ukrainian rallying cry and symbol of national resistance, would deny companies controlled or owned by Moscow, such as Rosneft, Gazprom, Rosatom, Aeroflot, and RT, access to critical American capital as they fund Vladimir Putin's war efforts," they said.

"No Russian state-owned enterprise should have access to American capital while a bloodthirsty dictator is waging an invasion against Ukraine."
