Wednesday: Water rule, Iran sanctions

The House will vote on legislation regarding the Obama administration’s Waters of the United States rule, as well as Iran sanctions.

The only House votes of the day are expected around 11:30 a.m. on a Senate-passed resolution disapproving of the regulation defining navigable waters under the jurisdiction of the federal government.

After votes, Republicans will head to Baltimore for the party’s annual policy retreat that lasts through Friday.

The Senate is not in session on Wednesday to accommodate GOP senators traveling to the retreat.
