                           IRAN NUCLEAR DEAL

  (Mr. DeSANTIS asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. DeSANTIS. Mr. Speaker, I hope that every Member of this body 
reads the joint comprehensive plan of action that the Obama 
administration has agreed to with Iran. Because, if they do, I think 
you will see overwhelming majority vote to repudiate it.
  You have heard about some of the massive influx of cash for Iran. You 
have heard about their ability to keep their nuclear infrastructure, 
all these hugely problematic provisions.
  Interestingly, we talk about if Iran violates the deal, we can snap 
back economic sanctions. In fact, Iran can snap back in a nuclear 
direction.
  Here is what the agreement says: Iran has stated that, if sanctions 
are reinstated, in whole or in part, Iran will treat that as grounds to 
cease performing its commitment under this JCPOA, in whole or in part.
  That means, if Iran cheats and we go to penalize them, Iran is 
reserving the right to simply go back to producing nuclear weapons.
  We have been told that no deal is better than a bad deal. Mr. 
Speaker, this is a bad deal.
