President Not Correct

Floor Speech

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Mr. Speaker, over the weekend, Iran held another government-sponsored Holocaust cartoon contest in the capital of Tehran. Their denial of the mass slaughter endured by millions of men, women, and children during the Holocaust is yet another example of this theocratic regime's irrational and counterproductive conduct which hurts the citizens of Iran.

As he announced the dangerous Iran deal, the President claimed that it would help Iran become a more moderate regime, one that respects our allies. The President was not correct.

This is a nation that continually denies the genocide of the Holocaust, is a state sponsor of terrorism, tests missile development, and chants ``Death to America,'' ``Death to Israel.'' Sadly, the President continues to put faith in this dangerous regime.

I am grateful that, under the leadership of Chairman Ed Royce on the House Committee on Foreign Affairs, we are putting forth legislation to deny Iran access to the U.S. dollar if they continue to promote terrorism to threaten American families with mass murder.

In conclusion, God bless our troops, and may the President by his actions never forget September the 11th in the global war on terrorism.
