Senator Robert Menendez (D-NJ) urges colleagues to pass the Menendez-Kirk amendment which if passed would sanction financial institutions that do business with the Central Bank of Iran. The amendment seeks to deny Iran the resources for its nuclear weapons program. "This amendment will starve the beast," said Menendez. As of now, the bi-partisan amendment co-authored with Senator Kirk (R-IL) has 52 co-sponsors -- a high number for this Congress.
