"I opposed the nuclear deal, and, in doing so, I laid out my express concern that sanctions relief would only further Iran's unyielding support for terrorism and its regional belligerence."

"I would rather put our heads together, as we have done so many times in the past 3 years, to work together to have a bipartisan bill that achieves what we all want on both sides of the aisle."

"But Congress had an opportunity to vote on the deal, and we lost."

"I just don't believe this is the way to go about doing it."
