Kirsten Gillibrand

WASHINGTON, D.C. — U.S. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand is taking a wait-and-see approach on the nuclear agreement brokered between the Obama administration and Iran.

The junior senator from New York said via press release that "now that the deal is complete, it is Congress' duty to look long and hard at the details."

Her full statement follows:

I strongly supported and helped pass the sanctions that were put in place that brought Iran to the table, but sanctions alone won't work. The best outcome for the national security interests of the United States and Israel is a strong, verifiable deal that prevents Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon. Now that the deal is complete, it is Congress's duty to look long and hard at the details. I want to read all of the details, especially on the verification components, before making a determination whether this is a good deal.
