A small group of people gathered in front of U.S. Senator Gary Peters downtown Lansing office Wednesday in hopes of convincing him to back the Iran nuclear deal.
He’s one of a handful of Democratic U.S. Senators on the fence.
Rabi Michael Zimmerman says the deal is essential for world peace and would create a safer climate in the Middle East.
The group also dropped off signed petitions hoping it would be enough to sway Peters to support the deal.
Peters has been hesitant to back the deal noting how complex it is.
He also fears Iran would pick up where it left off 10 or 15 years down the road.
