U.S. senators reached an agreement on Monday on legislation imposing new sanctions on Russia, including a provision that would prevent the White House from easing, suspending or ending sanctions without congressional approval.

It is sad when the law must include written provisions that the POTUS cannot change it as they see fit. IMHO, this has more to do with the propensity of the POTUS (no matter who it may be) to alter or even reverse standing law than being Trump specific.

While I do think in this specific case they did it with Trump in mind, it has certainly been a problem with previous Presidents. Maybe they should start using that wording as a default footer on all bills from here on out. :)
