I rise today to condemn the Iranian regime as it threatens the United States and our ally Israel. Iran is the world's leading state sponsor of terror, bankrolling the heinous terrorist groups Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis. The regime and its proxies seek to destroy America and Israel and wreak havoc across the Middle East. Let me be clear: Iran can never be allowed to obtain nuclear weapons, and the United States must always be prepared to act to prevent a nuclear-armed Iran. Our Nation is eternally grateful to the brave servicemembers who are keeping us safe, and we mourn those who have been lost in the line of duty. Mr. Speaker, I hope the administration will come to Congress with a plan and work with us to counter Iran's aggression and protect our country.
