Republicans are launching a multipronged offensive to undermine the nuclear agreement with Iran after failing to vote it down.
The House of Representatives is expected to take up legislation this week that would prohibit sanctions relief until Tehran pays court-ordered damages to the families of terror attacks, House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., announced Sept. 25. The bill from Rep. Pat Meehan, R-Pa., would first require President Barack Obama to certify that Iran has paid $43.5 billion in damages — a clear violation of the terms of the July 14 agreement.
