WILL CONGRESS SANCTION KERRY’S IRAN NUKE DEAL?
Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tenn., told “Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace” the nuclear deal struck between Iran and Western powers is a victory for the Tehran regime. The agreement eases sanctions on Iran and will send billions of dollars to the Islamist government while still allowing Iran to continue with its nuclear program. The architect of the deal, Secretary of State John Kerry, defended the agreement on Sunday, telling ABC News that the deal allows “intrusive” inspections of Iran’s nuclear facilities and limits the country's ability to enrich uranium. Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., and Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., both voiced similar concerns about the deal, suggesting Kerry may face challenges in getting Congress to stay out of it. The Kerry plan sets a six-month timetable for Iran to cooperate with international inspectors. He needs Congress to honor his agreement and not try to impose additional or replacement sanctions.
