Ryan Zinke said "The Iranian deal--I stand in the absolute, strongest possible opposition. What would make America think that Iran's having a nuclear capability in 13 years would be a good idea? What would make any American believe that, in 5 years, relaxing the sanctions on conventional arms--the same 10,000 missiles that struck Israel--and, in 8 years, relaxing the sanctions on ICBMs would be a good idea? There is only one purpose for an ICBM, and that is to attack every city in the United States. Lastly, because this deal does not dismantle anything, in 13 years, Iran could legally have a path for at least 100 ICBMs. Those are the facts in voting for this bill when there are secret deals that no Congressman has seen. No Congressman has looked at the deal. My job is truth. My job is to deliver truth to the American people, to deliver truth to Montana, and this deal is not truthful. We are rewarding Iran with $50 billion to $100 billion. Terrorism--the idea that we take this deal or go to war is patently false. Sanctions work. We need a dismantle for this mantle. I ask my colleagues to be Americans first and vote against this bill. ___________________
