U.S. Democrats in new bid to push Russia and Iran sanctions bill


WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. House of Representatives Democrats said they would introduce a new version of a Russia and Iran sanctions bill on Wednesday, in a new bid to move legislation that has been mired in partisan squabbling for almost a month.

Democrats on the House Foreign Affairs Committee plan to introduce in the House on Wednesday a Russia and Iran sanctions bill identical to one that passed the Senate 98-2 on June 15 but has not come up for a vote in the House.
