START appears set for final approval - POLITICO.com Print View


START appears set for final approval - POLITICO.com Print View: "The White House looks positioned to score a victory on the nuclear arms treaty with Russia, New START, which cleared a procedural hurdle Tuesday with 67 votes, the number needed for ratification.

The Senate is expected to ratify the treaty Wednesday after 11 Republicans broke with their party’s leadership and voted Tuesday afternoon to shut down debate, 67-28."
