Claiming that the President did not comply with the Iran Nuclear Agreement Review Act

H.Res.411. Rep. Mike Pompeo’s (R-KS) resolution claimed that the President did not comply with the Iran Nuclear Agreement Review Act because he did not submit to Congress agreements made between the government of Iran and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). The resolution claimed that the IAEA agreements with Iran constituted side agreements within the Iran Nuclear Agreement, while the Obama administration contended that those agreements were separate from the Iran Nuclear Agreement. The resolution claimed that because the President had supposedly not followed the terms of the Iran Nuclear Agreement Review Act, the 60-day congressional review period had not actually started. Had that been the case, implementation of the agreement would have been delayed, which Iran would have likely see as a violation of the agreement. Passed, 245-186.
