Political Quotes

“Madam Speaker, I rise today horrified at the reports from Iran that hundreds of schoolgirls appear to have been poisoned in the suspected attack by the Iranian Government. I cannot stand by idly and watch these women and children continue to be targeted simply because they want to live free from persecution. Last month, I called on the President to do more than merely sanction the Ayatollah's illegal theocratic regime. The Biden administration will not respond because they are still looking to resuscitate the 2015 nuclear deal with Iran known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action. Additionally, its weakness on the world stage has the administration consumed by the war in Ukraine and recent airspace invasions from China. We have faced decades-long failed attempts to negotiate directly with the Islamic Republic. If there is one thing that has become crystal clear, it is that resuscitating the nuclear deal no longer offers a realistic pathway for mitigating the threats posed by Tehran. We need to stop virtue signaling and soft-pedaling with flimsy symbolic support. I call on the Biden administration to publicly disavow the prospect of a new nuclear deal with Iran. ____________________”
