House Republicans voted against President Obama's nuclear agreement with Iran, 269-162, in a largely symbolic gesture on Friday. This action followed Senate Democrats successfully blocking a GOP-led "resolution of disapproval" the previous day. The Senate's move represents a significant triumph for President Obama, preventing the need for him to veto a Senate rejection of the deal. The historic agreement promises to lift sanctions on Tehran, contingent on Iran's commitment to limit its nuclear activities.
