Why I signed the letter to Iran
In essence, the emerging deal would jettison the longstanding U.S. policy of preventing a nuclear-armed Iran in favor of a feeble 10-year containment plan that will basically cement Iran’s status as a nuclear-threshold nation. In other words, accepting this deal would mean resigning ourselves to the fact that Iran will have the bomb one day. I simply refuse to do that. Such an outcome would be terribly dangerous for the Texans I represent.
