S.Amdt.3878 to H.R.2028. Sen. Tom Cotton’s (R-AR) amendment was designed to undermine the Iran Nuclear Agreement by preventing the purchase of heavy water from Iran. Heavy water is one necessary component in the production of plutonium, which can be used to make a nuclear warhead. The vote (requiring 60 votes to pass) was on whether or not to end debate on the amendment and proceed to a vote on the amendment itself. Failed, 57-42.
