WASHINGTON, D.C. (KELO.com) — An Iowa Senator is leading the charge to enforce sanctions against Iran
Senator Joni Ernst, a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, joined nine of her Senate colleagues in a letter to President Joe Biden demanding that he enforce mandatory sanctions against the growing fleet of oil tankers selling Iranian oil and against the entities purchasing this oil.
President Biden has so far refused to take action against the sharp rise in Iranian oil exports since he took office.
The Senators wrote that failure to take action is removing US leverage in the Vienna nuclear talks.
