Congressman Ben Ray Luján released the following statement today on the Obama Administration's nuclear agreement with Iran.

"Preventing a nuclear-armed Iran is absolutely critical to the safety and security of our allies in the Middle East. We must stop the spread of nuclear weapons. I commend President Obama, Secretary Kerry, Secretary Moniz and our allies for their commitment to halting Iran's nuclear weapons ambitions. Congress must carefully consider the terms of this agreement, and I will take a close look at all of the details. It is critical that it includes strong safeguards and transparency provisions that hold Iran accountable."
