The Senate Foreign Relations Committee says it has created a bill that would give Congress the power to review and approve Barack Obama’s deal with Iran. Better yet, the legislation appears to be veto-proof, so nothing Obama can do with his pen can stop the combined Democrat and Republican caucuses. Sen. Ben Cardin (D-MD) told MSNBC, “We’ve reached an agreement and I’m confident that it will carry out the two major purposes of the bill: an orderly way to review the agreements when they’re submitted and the timing … in the event that there’s material breaches.” Under the tentative bill, which has yet to leave the committee, Congress will have 30 days to review and vote on Obama’s Iran treaty.
