Yesterday Senate Democrats blocked the Senate from voting on the Iranian nuclear deal, but had we been allowed to vote on the deal, I would have proudly voted against it.

The agreement struck by the Obama administration and the leaders of the Islamic Republic of Iran is a bad deal for global security, a bad deal for our allies and a bad deal for the American people. And that’s why, without the support of the American people or the consent of their elected representatives in Congress, this deal is nothing more than a political agreement between President Obama and the leaders of Iran.
