Why the Administration is Perfectly Pleased with the Iran Nuclear Agreement Review Act http://t.co/4HLUpsFWgr— Nancy LeTourneau (@Smartypants60) April 15, 2015
A snippet:
But with the passage of the “Iran Nuclear Agreement Review Act,” Congress will take a very significant step toward legitimating that structure. By passing the bill, Congress will explicitly concede both that the president has the authority to unilaterally waive sanctions “wholesale,” and that it expects him to do so. By setting up the review structure, Congress admits that unilateral presidential moves are not only be effective, but legitimate, as long as the president can sustain the support of 34 senators. So not only has the President succeeded in turning the tables on Congressional approval, but he has succeeded in getting Congress to admit that the tables are turned.
