WASHINGTON – As Iran and the superpowers move closer to reviving their 2015 nuclear agreement, a bipartisan group of 50 House Members – 34 of them Democrats – sent a letter to President Joe Biden, expressing deep concern over the deal and urging the administration to consult with Congress before signing it.
Congressman Josh Gottheimer (D-New Jersey) and Andrew Garbarino (R-New York) led the bipartisan letter. Among the members who signed: Elaine Luria (D-Virginia), Juan Vargas (D-California), Fred Upton (R-Michigan), Lois Frankel (D-Florida) and Ritchie Torres (D-New York).
“We are writing to respectfully request that your Administration provide Congress with the full text of any proposal to rejoin the Iran nuclear agreement, known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), including any side agreements, and consult with Congress prior to reentering that agreement,” the House Members wrote.
