Lawmakers are also interested in exerting more pressure on Iran. For example, Sens. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., and John Fetterman, D-Penn., along with lawmakers in the House, introduced a resolution on Thursday that affirms that all options should remain on the table in dealing with Iran's nuclear threat.
Graham said in a statement Thursday that should Iran obtain a nuclear weapon, it would prove "one of the most destabilizing and dangerous events in world history."
Additionally, Graham said ahead of Netanyahu's visit that the moment is right to eliminate Iran's nuclear threat now, and that the U.S. should back Israel if it chooses to "decimate" Iran's nuclear program.

"We'll have to see. I'm going to be meeting with various people over the next couple of days," Trump told reporters on Jan. 24. "We'll see, but hopefully that could be worked out without having to worry about it."
"Iran hopefully will make a deal. I mean, they don't make a deal, I guess that's OK, too," Trump said.
