Just a few years ago, there was serious deliberation, prayer, much review, the utilization of experts as the House of Representatives voted for the Iran deal of the P5+6. I remember extensive deliberations and the probing of experts on the compliance aspect of this nuclear deal. As I speak, the President has announced a pullout--or will be announcing such, I think--with drastic consequences. It is certainly appropriate to look at bilateral agreements, but to all that have reviewed, Iran is complying with this agreement. As we approach North Korea, it will be baffling to them as we try to engage in a final agreement. This is not about campaign pledges or your dislike for the former President of the United States. It is about the safety and security of the world and the containment of nuclear products and the utilization of such. So I would argue that the Congress needs to stand up, make good on its commitments, protect the American people and the world from nuclear catastrophe. ____________________
