Bill Summary

Finding that the President has not complied with section 2 of the Iran Nuclear Agreement Review Act of 2015. Declares that: the President has not complied with provisions of the Iran Nuclear Agreement Review Act of 2015 requiring transmission to Congress of nuclear agreements with Iran and related verification assessments because the communication from the President did not constitute the agreement as defined by the Atomic Energy Act of 1954; and the period for review by Congress of nuclear agreements with Iran under the Atomic Energy Act of 1954 has not commenced because the agreement has not yet been transmitted to the appropriate congressional committees and leadership.

AI Summary

This Resolution declares that the President has not complied with the Iran Nuclear Agreement Review Act of 2015, specifically section 2, which requires the transmission of nuclear agreements with Iran to Congress. The Resolution states that the President's previous communication did not qualify as the "agreement" as defined by the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, which includes any related side agreements or implementing materials. Consequently, because the full agreement, including these crucial side agreements with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) concerning Iran's nuclear program, has not been properly submitted to Congress, the mandated review period for such agreements has not yet begun.
