Iranian Sanctions Relief Fuels Terror

Statement

Issues: Foreign Affairs

Today, the House passed H.R. 3662, the Iran Terror Finance Transparency Act. Rep. Loudermilk strongly supported the bill.

"Since the U.S. signed the Iran deal this past July, Iran has blatantly broken its side of the agreement by testing ballistic missiles on three separate occasions, including firing rockets near American navy ships. Yet, the Obama Administration chose to lift sanctions anyway.

"We have to remember Iran's true intentions. They sponsor terrorism, capture U.S. military boats and force American patriots to kneel at gun point, hold innocent U.S. citizens hostage, and chant, "Death to America.' Iran is not our friend, and is certainly not our ally. They are our enemy; and diplomacy will not stop them from trying to destroy us. Iran does not deserve a pat on the back as it plots to strike at the heart of what makes America exceptional -- our freedom."
