The announcement of a preliminary nuclear deal with Iran - the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action - touched off fierce discussion in Washington over the nature of the accord and how Congress should evaluate it.
The emerging bipartisan opposition to the porous deal centers on six primary concerns:
1. Nuclear Breakout: The preliminary nuclear agreement maintains and legitimizes Iran's nuclear infrastructure, with some caps for the next 10 to 15 years. But it allows the regime to build an industrialized nuclear program with few limitations in about a decade. Under the agreement the time to nuclear breakout is neither reduced nor is the goal of a nuclear weapons free Iran realized.
