Republican dispute delays US Congress vote on Iran nuclear accord

WASHINGTON - A rebellion by conservative Republicans in the House of Representatives on Wednesday delayed the first congressional vote on the nuclear agreement with Iran and raised the possibility that lawmakers might never vote on a resolution disapproving of the pact.
The House was supposed to vote on a procedural motion to begin debate on Wednesday, but it was put off after some Republicans said they wanted to push President Barack Obama to provide more information about the deal.
Instead, House Republican leaders scheduled a late afternoon meeting to discuss how to proceed.
