If this deal does not protect our national security and the security of the region and our allies Congress may have no other choice but to vote it down by passing a resolution of disapproval.
Texas Insider Report: WASHINGTON D.C. In remarks on the Senate floor today U.S. Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) detailed his concerns about the ongoing negotiations with Iran over their nuclear capabilities.
Excerpts of Sen. Cornyns remarks are below and video of his speech can be found

As we all know earlier this year Congress passed the Iran Nuclear Agreement Review Act which guarantees that Congress on behalf of the American people will have time to study scrutinize and debate and then ultimately vote on whether we approve or disapprove of the negotiated deal between Secretary Kerry and the Administration and Tehran."
As I have said all along I have grave concerns about how the President has been negotiating with one of our foremost adversaries a country that constantly threatens the American people and our allies."
And the broad outlines … of the potential deal that we have seen reported in the press dont look particularly promising. It seems to get actually worse by the day."
Fortunately the Senate has proved we will not stand by and watch the President as he makes far-reaching agreements without the consent of the American people through their elected representatives."
If this deal does not protect our national security and the security of the region and our allies Congress may have no other choice but to vote it down by passing a resolution of disapproval."
Senator John Cornyn a Republican from Texas is a member of the Senate Judiciary and Finance Committees.
