I could well be wrong, but my understanding was that it was an issue.

This for example:

The Senator says: "ISDS would allow foreign companies to challenge U.S. laws." But my understanding is it can't be used to challenge any law whatsoever. Could be wrong (although the latter makes sense, while the former doesn't).
