On the recordDecember 1, 2011
I thank the chairman. As we know, Iran funds Hamas, Hezbollah, and other terrorist organizations. We should not allow American-controlled companies to provide cash to Iran so that they can convert these funds into bullets and bombs to be used against us and our allies. It is inexcusable for American companies to engage in any business practice that provides revenues to terrorists, and we have to stop it. I look forward to working with Chairman Johnson to close this loophole.
