White House lobbies for Iran nuclear deal despite high-level Democratic defections.

President Obama is fighting hard to get enough political support to pass the controversial Iran nuclear deal.

While most Republicans have long opposed the deal, a key Democratic Senator, Chuck Schumer, now says he'll vote against it. Schumer, who is Jewish and a strong supporter of Israel, says there aren't enough guarantees that Iran won't eventually develop nuclear weapons. He's the second Senior Democrat to come out against the deal.

White House spokesman Josh Earnest says despite the defections, the President is committed to the agreement:
