Entire US Senate Votes 100-0 to Defy Barack H. Obama
President Barack Obama’s rosy optimism on the prospect of Iran complying with the treaty currently being negotiated regarding its nuclear program apparently isn’t shared by many in the Senate. Or, well, anybody.
The upper house voted 100-0 on an amendment that would reimpose sanctions on Iran if they were found to be in noncompliance with whatever terms are finally hammered out between Iran and the P5+1 powers.
The amendment, offered by Illinois Republican Sen. Mark Kirk, is part of a broader piece of legislation being pushed by Kirk and New Jersey Democrat Sen. Bob Menendez.
