Russia imposed personal sanctions Monday on 25 Americans, including actors Sean Penn and Ben Stiller, in response to U.S. sanctions against Russians stemming from the conflict in Ukraine.

U.S. Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo was on the new sanctions list, as were several American senators: Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.) and Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.), Kevin Cramer (R-N.D.), Mike Rounds (R-S.D.), Rick Scott (R-Fla.), and Pat Toomey (R-Pa.).
