The Senate is scheduled to vote this week on legislation to increase sanctions against North Korea following a missile launch over the weekend.
The North Korea Sanctions Enforce Act, a bill from Rep. Ed Royce, R-Calif., passed the House last month and is scheduled for a vote in the full Senate this week after being approved by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, according to a release from Royce's office.
"As North Korea works to build a nuclear arsenal capable of hitting the United States it is clear the Obama administration's policy of 'strategic patience' has failed," Royce said in a statement. "This latest aggression underscores the importance of enacting my legislation to strengthen targeted sanctions against this brutal regime."

I am sure Kim is shaking in his boots - next they will send a strongly-worded letter!
lets just hope they have the gazuples to vote as they should instead of like a bunch of sniveling whimps.
president Osama will veto the bill, no way he wants to upset the north koreans
McAurthur knew exactly how to handle North Korea,but the then president would not allow him to.Political correctness has always been around.
Kim is shaking in his pajamas now. I'm sure the sanctions will cause him to immediately capitulate and agree to all the Western demands.
This is the excuse he is waiting for.
Ya know., we hear all about these exotic laser weapons that the military has.., future launches need to start having problems.
