The Iran deal

International relations can be complex, but this isn't. Our deal is working, and this administration needs to keep us safe.

Diane --

Today, the President announced a dangerous plan to abandon the Iran deal.

International relations can be complex.

But when it comes to the agreement we reached in 2015 -- which prevented Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon -- there is only one simple, objective answer:

The Iran deal is working.

That's not a partisan talking point. Those who negotiated it under President Obama know it to be true. Our closest international allies agree.

So does newly appointed Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who confirmed Iran was in compliance at his confirmation hearing last month. As does Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis, who praised the deal's verification and monitoring regime.

As does the UN's watchdog agency responsible for verifying it.

Here is what we must remember about our agreement with Iran:
  1. Iran is never, ever allowed to develop a nuclear weapon. There are no end dates to Iran's commitment.
  2. Iran has been -- and still is -- in compliance with the deal. Every objective observer agrees that Iran has held up its end of the bargain. Even top national security officials in the Trump administration agree.
  3. Leaving will isolate us from our allies. There is no middle ground. Our failure to hold up our end of the deal will place us in violation, threatening our ties to close European allies.
All of which is to say: Today's decision is a threat to our safety.

This administration has manufactured a global crisis, again, with no strategy to solve it. It is unacceptable, and we must say so.

Stand up with OFA today against this decision:

I'm in

Thank you,
