What H.R. 7095 does, in plain terms
Ending Importation of Laundered Russian Oil Act This bill prohibits the importation of energy products that were produced at any refinery that uses crude oil originating in Russia. Current law prohibits the importation of Russian products that are classified under Chapter 27 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (which includes mineral fuels, mineral oils and products of their distillation, bituminous substances, and mineral waxes) unless the President terminates the prohibition after meeting certain requirements. The bill extends this prohibition and the termination provisions to products that were produced at any refinery that uses crude oil originating in Russia. Under the termination provisions, the President may terminate this prohibition, subject to congressional disapproval, if the President certifies that Russia (1) has reached an agreement with Ukraine to withdraw Russian forces and cease military hostilities in Ukraine, (2) poses no immediate military threat of aggression to any North Atlantic Treaty Organization member, and (3) recognizes the right of the Ukrainian people to independently and freely choose their own government.
