Obama to Seek New START Ratification Next Month

That’s according to a just-released statement from Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.), chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee:

The White House has indicated that the full treaty will be completed and submitted to the Senate in early May.  I plan to begin hearings on the treaty in the coming weeks, and then report a proposed resolution of advice and consent to ratification out of the Foreign Relations Committee for approval by the full Senate as soon as possible.
