Committee Continues Examination of the Implications of a Nuclear Agreement with Iran – Tomorrow 10am

The following press release was published by the House Committee on Foreign Affairs on July 13, 2015. It is reproduced in full below.

Washington, D.C. - Tomorrow at 10:00 a.m., as the Obama Administration works to complete a final nuclear deal with Iran, U.S. Rep. Ed Royce (R-CA), Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, will convene a hearing entitled, “Implications of a Nuclear Agreement with Iran: Part II." The hearing is the second in a series of hearings the Committee will convene to examine the Obama Administration’s anticipated nuclear agreement with Iran.

Chairman Royce said: “As we anticipate a congressional review of the Administration’s possible nuclear agreement with Iran, we’ll be looking to see how the Administration has done on Congress’ red lines. Did we get anywhere, anytime inspections? Full Iranian transparency regarding its past nuclear activities? No large-scale, immediate sanctions relief; but guaranteed, workable sanctions snap-backs? Meaningful restraints on Iran’s nuclear program that last decades? This hearing will be the first in a series the Committee will hold should the Administration strike what might be one of the most significant agreements in decades. As I have said, no deal is far better than a bad deal."
