Bill Summary

Stopping Russian Nuclear Aggression Act

AI Summary

This bill, the Stopping Russian Nuclear Aggression Act, aims to limit the availability of funds to extend the implementation of the New START (Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty) beyond its current expiration date in 2021. The bill cites concerns that Russia has developed new strategic weapons systems that may not be covered under the existing treaty and that Russia has not complied with its arms control obligations. The bill would prohibit the use of funds to extend the New START Treaty unless the President certifies that extending the treaty is in the national security interest of the United States and that Russia has agreed to include all of its new weapon systems under the treaty's limits and has entered into an agreement to address the disparity between Russian and U.S. tactical nuclear weapons stockpiles.
