Statement on the President's Iran Deal Announcement

Statement

Iowa Congressman David Young issued the following statement on the President's decision to reinstate sanctions on Iran which were waived under the Iran Deal:

"I support this decision to withdraw from the Iran Nuclear Deal. It didn't stop Iran from continuing to destabilize the region through their support of terrorism, failed to address Iran's ballistic missile program, and the sunsetting provisions wouldn't stop Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon. Iran continues to destabilize the region through their support of the Assad regime in Syria and support for terror networks like Hezbollah and Hamas, and it is time we hold them accountable. The House passed multiple bills to confront Iran's ballistic missile program and its support of terrorism and I'm pleased the administration is reinstating the sanctions waived under the Iran Nuclear Deal."
