Congressman MacArthur’s Statement on the Iran Nuclear Deal

WASHINGTON, D.C. –Today, Congressman Tom MacArthur released the following statement on the Iran nuclear deal:

I’ve always said the Iran nuclear deal was a terrible deal for America, Israel and our other allies in the Middle East. This deal did not end Iran’s nuclear program, it only resulted in reduced pressure and less protection. The ink was barely dry and we already had evidence that Iran was violating the terms of this agreement. And they continue to do so—just this week, it was reported that Iran was trying to obtain technology that could be used for a nuclear program. We should never underestimate the resolve of the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism and we must fight to protect our country and our allies.
