Iran is the largest state-sponsor of terror, lending support to Hezbollah, Hamas, and other anti-Western militant groups.

I am convinced that Iran will continue on this path until the sanctions bite so bad that the regime must relent or face upheaval.

From day one the Obama administration has reached out to the Iranian regime. Unfortunately, that hand has been met with more centrifuges, more missiles, and more stonewalling.

Iran's drive for nuclear weapons is a threat not only to the United States and Israel but to the entire global community.

I am convinced, as are 325 of my colleagues, that only when the Iranian leadership truly feels a choice between maintaining power and the bomb does our diplomacy have a chance to succeed.

Part of the information sharing better be with the Member of Congress as well.

It is unfortunate that the FBI has chosen to obstruct this committee's oversight, jurisdiction of events leading up to a terrorist attack on our country.

For the FBI to allege that this committee does not have jurisdiction over investigating a terrorist attack in the homeland in the United States is a disservice to the American people.

We can and we must do better.

You cannot defeat an enemy you refuse to acknowledge.

The homeland security system we must acknowledge that we built after 9/11 to protect the American people from terrorist attacks failed to stop the Tsarnaev brothers.
