I do not trust Iran, and I was struck today--my jaw dropped--when Under Secretary Sherman effectively admitted that we will not have physical access to all military sites.

The United States will have greater success, however, in confronting a non-nuclear Iran over the next decade rather than an Iran with nuclear weapons.

Rather than vote to disapprove the President's policy, I hope members of both parties will work with the Administration to strengthen the ability of the United States to implement the agreement successfully.

This should not be subject to partisan attacks and political ad wars, even though it has been.

Verification is key. It is not a question of trust.

We know Iran is a sponsor of terrorism. We know it destabilizes the region.

Congress must consider carefully now the repercussions of lifting those sanctions on our national security and our economic interests.

Iran remains the world's leading state sponsor of terror.

I believe, however, that if it is implemented effectively, the agreement will restrict and weaken Iran's nuclear program for more than a decade.

I support the Iran nuclear agreement and urge the Congress to vote in favor of it in September.

President Obama should reaffirm publicly and in the most unmistakable terms, his readiness to deploy military force to strike Iran should it violate the agreement.

What happens if Congress rejects the deal? How would we maintain effective enforcement of our sanctions?

We have an unusually grave and historic responsibility to assess the consequences, without partisan rancor, without any partisan attacks, to assess the consequences of this agreement.

It remains a serious risk to the national security interests of the United States.

I support this agreement. I would hope that Congress would approve this agreement and strengthen the ability of our country to move ahead.

The United States should also press Iran to meet the grievances of American families who lost their loved ones in Iranian-inspired attacks.

The Obama administration could reaffirm our ongoing commitment to Israel's Qualitative Military Edge (QME) over any potential aggressor in the Middle East region.

This is one of the most significant national security issues Congress will face in a generation.
