                     NUCLEAR NEGOTIATIONS WITH IRAN

  (Mrs. WAGNER asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Mrs. WAGNER. Mr. Speaker, I come to the floor today to speak about 
one of our greatest national security challenges: the threat of a 
nuclear-armed Iran.
  I am deeply troubled by the Obama administration's recent 7-month 
extension of nuclear negotiations with Iran. The extension means that 
Iran will continue to have access to $700 million a month in sanctions 
relief.
  Every day that we continue these talks is another day given to Iran 
to develop a nuclear weapon. A nuclear-armed Iran would start a new 
arms race in the Middle East and pose an intolerable threat to the 
national security of the United States and our allies, especially 
Israel.
  The House has passed H.R. 850, the Nuclear Iran Prevention Act, which 
would increase sanctions on the Iranian regime. Now it is time for the 
United States Senate to do its part and pass legislation that would 
impose additional sanctions on Iran.
