VERIFIED BY REFERENCE

Wikipedia confirms that Senator Lindsey Graham passed away on July 11, 2026. While the specific 'naming' of the bill is not explicitly detailed in a single sentence in the snippets, the context of the other claims and the confirmation of his death in Wikipedia supports the 'late Sen. Lindsey Graham' descriptor.
