ASSOCIATED PRESS: President Barack Obama’s deal with Iran looks to have enough support to pass.
“No deal is perfect, especially one negotiated with the Iranian regime,” [Maryland Democratic Sen. Barbara] Mikulski said in a statement. She called the accord “the best option available to block Iran from having a nuclear bomb. For these reasons, I will vote in favor of this deal.”
The backing from Mikulski, who is retiring next year, gives supporters the margin they need to uphold an Obama veto of a congressional resolution of disapproval if Republicans pass such a measure later this month.
