                           IRAN NUCLEAR DEAL

  (Ms. ROS-LEHTINEN asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. ROS-LEHTINEN. Mr. Speaker, earlier today, the Supreme Leader's 
handpicked puppet, Rouhani, prematurely tweeted about what he called a 
victory of diplomacy and, get this, mutual respect before a nuclear 
deal between the P5+1 and Iran was actually sealed.
  This is the same regime that openly calls for death to America and to 
our ally, the democratic Jewish State of Israel, and the same despots 
who support terror all across the globe aimed at U.S. interests.
  Now we hear that we may capitulate and end the arms embargo on Iran, 
its conventional military and ballistic missile program, and that the 
U.S. will lift all sanctions on day one.
  And for what, Mr. Speaker? So that Iran can keep in place every major

piece of its nuclear infrastructure, and Iran can claim victory over 
the Great Satan and the Little Satan.
  This will be more than just a defeat for diplomacy. It will be a 
disaster that will set in motion a nuclear and conventional arms race 
in the world's most volatile region. And who knows what dangers that 
will bring.
