布赖恩·菲茨帕特里克（R-Pa.）周六誓言要推动众议院投票，以阻止俄罗斯石油采购，挑战特朗普总统与普京总统的柴油交易。
Brian Fitzpatrick (R-Pa.) vowed Saturday to force a House vote to block Russian oil purchases, challenging President Trump's diesel deal with President Vladimir Putin. Why it matters:
为什么重要：特朗普一直将这笔交易宣传为降低燃油价格的方式，但它也可能为俄罗斯在乌克兰的战争提供资金。
Trump has touted the deal as a way to lower fuel prices, but it could also provide revenue for Russia's war in Ukraine. Driving the news:
推动新闻：菲茨帕特里克是国会乌克兰党团的联合主席，他表示将提出《里根通过实力维护和平法案》，并通过请愿动议强制投票。
Fitzpatrick, co-chair of the Congressional Ukraine Caucus, said he would introduce the "Ronald Reagan Peace Through Strength Act" and force a vote through a discharge petition.
- "它将通过请愿动议被迫提交全院讨论，并将以压倒性优势通过，"菲茨帕特里克写道。
• "It will be forced to the Floor via discharge and it will pass overwhelmingly," Fitzpatrick wrote on
- 即将退休的众议员唐·贝肯（R-Neb.）告诉Axios，他已经"同意"签署该请愿书。
• Retiring Rep. Don Bacon (R-Neb.) tells Axios he has "already agreed" to sign the petition. Catch up quick:
快速了解：特朗普周五表示，俄罗斯将立即向美国和全球市场供应超过30万吨柴油，随后还会有更多批次。
Trump said Friday Russia would immediately supply more than 300,000 tons of diesel to U.S. and global markets, with more shipments to follow.
- 能源分析师对额外柴油能否显著降低价格持怀疑态度。
• Energy analysts are skeptical the additional diesel will meaningfully lower prices.
- 乌克兰总统泽连斯基称该交易"不公平且不诚实"，告诉Axios这相当于对普京的馈赠。
• Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky called the deal "not fair and not honest," telling Axios it amounted to a gift to Putin.
- 特朗普周六呼吁乌克兰用一位愿意与俄罗斯达成协议的领导人取代泽连斯基。
• Trump called Saturday for Ukraine to replace Zelensky with a leader willing to reach a deal with Russia. The White House
白宫尚未回应Axios就菲茨帕特里克法案的置评请求。
has not yet responded to Axios' request for comment about Fitzpatrick's bill.
大局观：菲茨帕特里克是近年来以高调方式与特朗普决裂的最新一位共和党议员，因为该党正努力在总统不满情绪上升的情况下保持对国会的控制。
The big picture: Fitzpatrick is the latest Republican lawmaker to break with Trump in a high-profile way, as the party fights to keep control of Congress amid mounting disapproval of the president.
全局视角：菲茨帕特里克正转向议员们越来越多使用的一种策略，以绕过众议长迈克·约翰逊（R-La.）：请愿动议，该动议需要218个签名才能在未经众议院领导批准的情况下将立法提案提交投票。
Zoom out: Fitzpatrick is turning to a tactic lawmakers have increasingly used to bypass Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.): a discharge petition, which requires 218 signatures to bring legislation up for a vote without House leadership's approval.
- 菲茨帕特里克和贝肯 earlier this year 已通过请愿动议强制众议院就乌克兰援助和对俄制裁进行投票；该法案在众议院通过，但在参议院搁置。
• Fitzpatrick and Bacon forced a House vote on Ukraine aid and Russia sanctions earlier this year; it passed the House but stalled in the Senate.
现实检验：菲茨帕特里克在本届国会于1月结束之前，时间紧迫，难以通过该法案。
Reality check: Fitzpatrick has little time to pass the bill before this Congress ends in January.
- 众议院将在11月3日中期选举之后才再次安排投票。
• The House isn't scheduled to vote again until after the Nov. 3 midterm.
- 即使众议院通过的任何立法仍需参议院批准，并且可能面临特朗普的否决权。
• Any legislation that passes the House would still need Senate approval and could face Trump's veto pen.
他们说：另一位众议院共和党人匿名接受Axios采访，坦率地表示：“由于国会将在接下来的四周内不开会，任何审慎的立法者可能都不会过早地对此作出承诺。”• 一位众议院民主党人告诉Axios，他们将亲自签署请愿书，并且认为“大多数”同事也可能会这样做，但民主党内部的一致支持并不能保证。
What they're saying: Another House Republican, speaking anonymously to offer their candid thoughts, tells Axios: "Being that Congress won't be in session for another four weeks, any prudent lawmaker would probably not make a commitment to this prematurely." • One House Democrat tells Axios that they will personally sign the petition and that "most" of their colleagues probably would as well, but unanimous support from Democrats is not guaranteed.
- “领导层可能不希望人们帮助他，”该民主党人表示，尽管他们补充说，这种情况可能在中期选举之后会有所改变。
• "Leadership may not want people to help him," the Democrat said, though they added that may change after the midterms.
