McCaul on Biden Admin Hostage Deal With Iran

Statement

"The Americans held by Iran are innocent hostages who must be released immediately and unconditionally. However, I remain deeply concerned that the administration's decision to waive sanctions to facilitate the transfer of $6 billion in funds for Iran, the world's top state sponsor of terrorism, creates a direct incentive for America's adversaries to conduct future hostage-taking. It's particularly egregious that this is taking place on the same week as the anniversaries of 9/11--as Iran is actively harboring the leader of Al Qaeda--and Mahsa Amini's murder by Iran's so-called "morality police.' The administration is demonstrating weakness that only further endangers Americans and freedom-loving people around the world."
