REIMPOSE SANCTIONS ON IRAN
(Mr. WILSON of South Carolina asked and was given permission to
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Mr. Speaker, the Iranian regime
continues to enrich weapons-grade uranium, oppress its people, and
export missiles and terrorism.
Yesterday, the regime threatened that the West could not stop it from
a nuclear arms program, fulfilling the chant of death to Israel, death
to America. Iranian drones murder innocent Ukrainians every day.
In a Wall Street Journal column last week, John Bolton, former
National Security Advisor, wrote, incredibly: ``During Mr. Biden's
term. . . . his administration still seeks to resuscitate the Iran
deal.''
President Donald Trump was correct in pulling the U.S. out of the
Iran deal as Iran shamefully continues ICBM development to kill
Americans.
I am grateful to have joined a bipartisan group of 35 House
colleagues in sending a letter to leaders of the United Kingdom,
France, and Germany, encouraging them to reimpose sanctions on Iran.
In conclusion, God bless our troops, who successfully protected
America for 20 years as the global war on terrorism continues moving
from the Afghanistan safe haven to America with open Biden borders.
Our sympathy for the family of beloved civic leader Lottie Gregg.
