Congressman McCaul's Statement on Iran Nuclear Talks

November 8, 2013

Today Congressman McCaul, who serves as Chairman of the House Committe on Homeland Security, released the following statement with regards to the Iran nuclear talks:

“The United States must remain firm against Iran and should not lift any sanctions until the the world can verify that the Ayatollah has fully dismanteld his country’s nuclear weapons program. I also urge the U.S. Senate to keep the pressure on Iran and pass new sanctions to enhance our leverage with Tehran. Indeed, it is because of tough U.S. sanctions that Iran has come to the negotiating table in the first place."
