GOP Senators Rattle Sabers Over 60 Day Iran Ceasefire Deal The proposed 60 day ceasefire deal between Iran and Western powers has been met with skepticism by several high ranking Republican senators, including Lindsey Graham and Roger Wicker.
They argue that the agreement prioritizes short term gains over long term security for the United States.
