Today, Rep. John R. Carter (R-TX-31), voted in favor of House Resolution 411, which states that the President, by withholding information on side deals between Iran and the International Atomic Energy Agency, has not complied with the Iran Nuclear Agreement Review Act.  Until all information on the deal is divulged, including side agreements, and Congress has had the opportunity by law to fully review the entire agreement, all current sanctions against Iran shall remain.

“President Obama must provide the complete and full details of all side deals, and verbal agreements made between Iran and other negotiating parties, including the IAEA.,” said Rep. Carter. “It is outrageous that this President and his Administration have allowed Iran to enter into secret agreements with the IAEA that provide opportunities for Iran to undermine inspections and potentially develop a nuclear weapon. The side deal, which allegedly allows for Iran’s own experts to inspect its most secretive site, the Parchin nuclear site, is highly irresponsible and dangerous.  The Iran agreement is foolish and disastrous, it paves the path for a terrorist regime to develop nuclear weapons and clearly puts the security of America and our allies at risk.”

Tomorrow, the House is expected to vote to reject President Obama’s nuclear agreement with Iran, and to suspend the authority of the President to lift sanctions on Iran.  

Rep. Carter represents Texas District 31, which includes Fort Hood, the largest military installation in the free world. He serves as Chairman of the Homeland Security Subcommittee on Appropriations, is on the Subcommittee for Commerce, Justice and Science and the Defense Appropriations Subcommittee.
