A prominent Jewish Democrat endorsed President Obama's diplomacy with Iran on Friday, giving the president crucial support amid growing pushback from Congress.
Senate Intelligence Committee Chairwoman Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) said she was “baffled” by her colleagues' press for more sanctions, and accused them of trying to “undermine” talks.
“I strongly oppose any attempt to increase sanctions against Iran while [international] negotiations are ongoing,” Feinstein said in a statement. “I am baffled by the insistence of some senators to undermine ... talks. I will continue to support these negotiations and oppose any new sanctions as long as we are making progress toward a genuine solution.”
