Nuclear Iran Prevention Act of 2013

Floor Speech

Date: Aug. 1, 2013
Location: Washington, DC
Issues: National Security Defense Foreign Affairs

Mr. YODER. Mr. Speaker, I rise to enter into the record my support for H.R. 850, the Nuclear Iran Prevention Act. Unfortunately, I was not present for the rollcall vote on this bill. Please let the record show that I am a cosponsor of this legislation and that had I been present I fully intended to vote: ``yea.''

The message should be heard loud and clear from America: Iran must abandon its nuclear ambition. H.R. 850 is the vital next step in toughening sanctions on this brazen nation. Iran is an existential threat to Israel, our strongest ally in the Middle East, and a threat to peace throughout the world. Our steadfastness and resolve for peace and stability in the world will see this through.
