Senate to take up Bill on Nuke Talks

Reuters reports "The U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee could vote as soon as next week on a bill requiring President Barack Obama to submit any nuclear agreement with Iran for Congress' approval, the panel's chairman, Republican Senator Bob Corker, said on Monday."  Continuing, "the legislation would require Obama to submit a final nuclear agreement to Congress and restrict his authority to waive sanctions for 60 days so lawmakers have time to weigh in."  This may negate an attempt by the Obama Administration to validate a prospective agreement via U.N. Security Council Resolution.
