Senate panel approves Iran sanctions

Published: 06/20/2008

A U.S. Senate committee approved a broad range of sanctions against Iran.

The bill, initiated by the late U.S. Rep. Tom Lantos (D-Calif.) and passed overwhelmingly last year by the U.S. House of Representatives, was approved Wednesday by the Senate Finance Committee. That brings the bill a step closer to being signed into law.

The bill has the strong support of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee.
