Rep. Fallon Condemns Biden-Harris Appeasement Towards Iran

WASHINGTON, D.C. - Last Week, Rep. Pat Fallon (TX-04) joined 37 Congressional Republicans in sending a letter to Joe Biden condemning the Biden-Harris Administration's weak policies that have for embolden Iran and enabled the regime in Tehran to significantly advance its nuclear capacity.

"The Biden-Harris Admin's attempts to return to the era of Obama's failed nuclear deal is an embarrassment," said Rep. Fallon. "A nuclear Iran is completely unacceptable; we need to return to President Trump's peace through strength policies."

In the letter, the lawmakers state, "Your administration allowed Iranian-backed militias to attack our troops more than 180 times while responding only about 11 times, diminishing any fear of American strength. You further empowered Iranian proxies by removing the Houthis from the list of designated terrorist organizations and restoring funding to the Palestinian Authority and the Hamas accomplices in UNRWA. These proxies then attacked and besieged Israel-and you proceeded to impose a weekslong, partial arms embargo on Israel, weakening the chief adversary of Iran capable of destroying its nuclear program."

The lawmakers continued, "Each act of appeasement strengthened and emboldened Iran, which has raced to the edge of nuclear breakout. When President Trump left office, it would have taken Iran more than three months to enrich enough uranium for a single nuclear weapon. Under your watch, Iran may have slashed its breakout time by more than 90 percent and increased its stockpile of enriched uranium enough to build a nuclear arsenal of more than a dozen weapons in that time."
