        THE IRAN NUCLEAR AGREEMENT JEOPARDIZES NATIONAL SECURITY

  (Mrs. HARTZLER asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute.)
  Mrs. HARTZLER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in response to the Obama 
administration's announcement of reaching an agreement with the Islamic 
Republic of Iran, a state sponsor of terrorism, regarding its nuclear 
program.
  This agreement jeopardizes our national security and that of our 
allies by giving Iran the ability to continue its march towards nuclear 
capability. Where are the restrictions that the American people and her 
allies were promised? Where are the ``anytime, anywhere'' inspections? 
Where is the dismantling of Iran's nuclear infrastructure? I do not see 
these restrictions, Mr. Speaker.
  Additionally, this deal will hand Iran billions in sanctions relief 
for it to continue funding terrorism and promoting instability in the 
region.
  This agreement jeopardizes our closest ally, Israel, and relies on 
the hope that Iran, which has proven to shirk agreements in the past, 
complies with the terms. In short, this agreement does not stop Iran 
from being on the doorstep of nuclear capability. We cannot allow that 
to happen.
  Mr. Speaker, any deal that ends in a nuclear Iran is a bad deal and 
should be rejected.
