The Senate (click here) reached a bipartisan deal on legislation allowing a Congressional review and vote on any Iran Nuke deal reached by June 30.
Let's see if McConnell gets the bill through the Senate before June 30.

McConnell will have to break his own rule. They have enough time to get it all completed, the Trafficking Bill, the vote for the new AG and the Senate's answer to ? peace ?

...Congress (click here) will have a chance to vote on any nuke deal, but in a limited time frame. They will now have 30 days to review the deal not 60. Language making demands of Iran was softened. Sanctions can't be lifted for the 30 day Congressional review period. Under the compromise, Obama could sustain a veto of Congressional disapproval of the deal with just 34 Senators....
Corker's veto isn't even constitutional. 34 Senators. It can't set new precedent. The bill is ridiculous is assaults the US Constitution. What else is new with Republicans?
The US Supreme Court stated in their decision of Bush v. Gore, it was a one time decision and would not effect legal precedent. It did. This is the same issue. It has to be challenged.
There is no such thing as a unique legislative bill. The Corker Senate Majority has the potential to assault the US Constitution. The Bush v. Gore decision has been listed in legal proceedings on more than one occasion.
The President has the right to veto the Senate bill and make it ineffective. Any Senate mischief has no result on the other partners to the agreement.
This is a prime example of how Republicans do not care about the USA and it's constitution. They don't. They don't accept the reality of 2015 and the fact hundreds of years has gone by since the original documents of the US Constitution and the Bill of Rights. Every opportunity to root out unconstitutional measures by this Congress and others should be seen for what it is, a threat to the US Constitution. Candidate running for office should use these assaults against our Constitution in their campaigns. The Republican have the 'mind speak' that they are protective of the Constitution. They aren't and hide behind that 'mind speak.' They have to be known for what they are and not a 'faux face' of genuine concern for the country. The US Republicans changed the fiscal rating of the USA, that isn't enough to know?
Democrats never talk about the Constitution and their experience in protecting it and they should. Democrats are not communists or anti-American. They need to belong to the American electorate knowing their loyalty and patriotism. Patriotism and the American flag has not gone out of style.

...The Supreme Court usually prides itself on respecting the past while keeping an eye toward future legal precedent. But the court trod lightly when it intervened in 2000. The five conservative justices may have handed the election to Bush, but they tried to ensure that their decision would lack wider ramifications. “Our consideration is limited to the present circumstances," read the majority opinion in Bush v. Gore, "for the problem of equal protection in election processes generally presents many complexities."...
