Congressman Doug Collins (GA09) released the following statement, after voting against the Iran Nuclear Agreement Review Act:

"In today's world, no nation stands in more constant danger than the State of Israel. I have always made the security of our strongest ally in the Middle East a priority, and will not, for the sake of expediency, vote for a resolution that fails to protect its people from a regime whose goal is to wipe them from the face of the earth. I respect those who worked to hold this administration accountable for its lenient approach to a nuclear Iran. But Congress should not be party to any agreement that fails to protect the vital interests of the United States and its allies. My decision to vote No on today's resolution is simply an affirmation of my commitment to a strong Israel and America -- and to an Iran that has no opportunity to acquire a nuclear weapon."
