WASHINGTON (AP) — The House has passed GOP-backed legislation that would give Congress greater oversight of the landmark Iran nuclear agreement.
Lawmakers voted 191-106 Wednesday to approve the bill. They acted less than 24 hours after Tehran detained, and then released, 10 U.S. Navy sailors who had drifted into Iranian territorial waters.
Republicans seized on the dramatic incident as further evidence Iran can't be trusted. They say that since the agreement was reached in July, Tehran has tested ballistic missiles in violation of existing U.N. sanctions and continued to support terrorism.
The White House says the bill could upend the agreement and that the president will veto the measure if it reaches his desk.
