H. R. 1677, also known as the "Stop Russian Market Manipulation Act," aims to prohibit the import of certain minerals from the Russian Federation. The bill specifies minerals like platinum, palladium, nickel, and copper, and it bars their import if they are produced in Russia...
Simple Explanation
H. R. 1677 is a rule that wants to stop people in the U.S. from buying certain special metals from Russia, like shiny platinum and copper, because Russia is not being nice to another country. This rule will stay until the U.S. President says Russia is playing fair again, and there's no way to pause or skip this rule.
