Iran Nuclear Deal Review Bill Overwhelmingly Passed by Congress
(Worthy News)– Congress on Thursday sent President Barack Obama a bill to give lawmakers the power to review and potentially reject a nuclear deal with Iran, the Times of Israel reported.
The House overwhelmingly passed the measure, 400-25, a reflection of lawmakers’ insistence on having a say in what could be a significant international accord to get Iran to curb its nuclear program in exchange for relief from economic sanctions.
Getting a deal would enhance Obama’s foreign policy record, and while the GOP-led Congress doesn’t want to see a nuclear-armed Iran, they are skeptical about Iranian compliance and have demanded time to review the fine points of any agreement the White House reaches with Tehran. –[wp_colorbox_media url=”http://www.timesofisrael.com/us-congress-overwhelmingly-passes-nuclear-deal-review-bill/” type=”iframe” hyperlink=”Source”]
