Senate Democrats “blocked a second Republican attempt to pass a resolution disapproving of the Iran nuclear deal. But Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) is hardly giving up the fight, moving to schedule a Thursday vote on rolling back sanctions on Iran until the Islamic Republic recognizes Israel’s right to exist and releases American prisoners being held in the country,” the Washington Post reports.
“It’s a tactic aimed at forcing an up-or-down vote on the nuclear pact and getting Democrats directly on the record supporting what Republicans hope will be politically unpopular.”
