Fellow Republican Sens. Tom Cotton of Arkansas and John Cornyn and Ted Cruz of Texas co-sponsored the legislation.
 
Republicans have expressed concern that the planes, the sale of which was made possible by President Obama’s deal with the Iranian government that pulled back some sanctions, could be used by terrorists sponsored by or affiliated by the Iranian government.
