President Donald Trump has signed the Russia sanctions bill sent to him from the Congress but he's adding a statement saying the administration will carry out the law with reservations about its impact and the constitutionality of some provisions.
The bill is one of the first major pieces of legislation that was sent to Trump's desk, and it represents a rebuke of the President by giving Congress new veto power to block him from removing Russia sanctions.
The signing statement lays out Trump’s concerns about the legislation, including that it encroaches on presidential authority and may hurt U.S. ability to work with allies.
