Because the better path was to declare the President in violation of the Corker-Cardin Bill by not providing all the side agreements for Congressional review. Then, the sanctions would've stayed in place.
Passing a "Resolution of Disapproval" was exactly what the Corker-Cardin Bill was set up to accomplish -- allowing the GOP to object, but insuring that the sanctions would be lifted and the Iran deal would go forward.
I.e., the Resolution was Kabuki theater, while a vote declaring Corker-Cardin void would've constituted real action.
I can't imagine McClintock's reasons for objecting.
Thank you.
I now remember part of this.
Cheers,
