President Obama won’t allow Congress to review two key aspects of the Iranian Nuclear deal, Republican lawmakers learned from international partners last week.
Under the terms of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), the International Atomic Energy Agency would negotiate separately with Iran about the inspection of a facility long-suspected of being used to research long-range ballistic missiles and nuclear weapons.
“The Obama administration has failed to make public separate side deals that have been struck for the ‘inspection’ of one of the most important nuclear sites—the Parchin military complex,” said Representative Mike Pompeo (R., Kan.) in a statement Tuesday. “Not only does this violate the Iran Nuclear Agreement Review Act, it is asking Congress to agree to a deal that it cannot review.”
The IAEA has been trying to gain access to the Parchin site since 2005, but Iran has refused, even as it apparently demolished various parts of the complex. “The hardliners do not want to grant any concessions unless Iran is suitably rewarded,” International Institute for Strategic Studies director Mark Fitzpatrick told the BBC in 2014, after reports emerged of explosions at the base.

Frankly I don't Obama on any matter. He is a proven liar many times over. We should not be offering any compensations of any kind with taxpayers money, and there should no funding from the House on these billions of dollars.
this agreement was a feel good pr stunt from the beginning. Iran will get nukes and are playing all of us and we are playing into their game. We need a president with balls. Trump for 2016!
Of course not. It will show what an a&& he is. Time for the trump card. map
1:50 we do have a President with balls now, Jenner sent him his, and they are in a jar on his desk!
