              ONE YEAR OF THE DANGEROUS IRAN NUCLEAR DEAL

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. JOE WILSON

                           of south carolina

                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, July 14, 2016

  Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Mr. Speaker, one year ago, the 
President announced the framework of the dangerous Iran nuclear deal. 
In the past year, Iran continues to grow more hostile, threatening 
American families and our allies in the Middle East, especially Israel 
by testing intercontinental ballistic missiles. What's more, Iran has 
ordered its military to produce ICBMs that are capable of reaching more 
targets--Europe and even the Untied States. And they hatefully chant 
``Death to America, Death to Israel''.
  We should not make it easier for a rogue state to threaten American 
families and our allies by ignoring reality and offering more 
concessions to a regime which oppresses their great people. I 
appreciate that House Republicans have done everything we can to 
exercise oversight over the implementation of the dangerous agreement. 
This week, we passed legislation that would prevent the U.S. from 
purchasing heavy water from Iran and would deny the despots access to 
the dollar. We also passed the Iran Accountability Act of 2016, which 
holds Iran accountable for their ballistic missile violations and their 
human rights abuses against their citizens.
  In conclusion, God Bless Our Troops and may the President by his 
actions never forget September 11th in the Global War on Terrorism.
