Iran Deal Lobbying From All Sides (Tom Ashbrook, On Point)

The heat is fully on now on the Iran nuclear deal. The President, reportedly making calls from his summer vacation, looking to hold enough votes to sustain his veto against a Congressional vote of no to the deal. His allies, rallying support from airwaves to street corners. Opponents of the Iran deal pulling out all the stops. Pouring money into ad campaigns. Looking for every point of leverage to line up the votes to kill it. It is an extraordinary summertime battle of lobbyists, true believers, heads of state. This hour On Point: the arm-twisting, big money and urgent appeals over the Iran deal. / Tom Ashbrook
