The U.S., Iran, and the international community have reached a historic agreement to prevent Iran from developing a nuclear weapon, hopefully putting us on a path to ending decades of hostility. Unfortunately, war hawks in Congress are committed to undermining diplomacy. Over the next 60 days, we're going to have to campaign hard to make sure Congress doesn't squander this opportunity. But for right now, it's worth celebrating what a historic achievement this is for diplomacy. And we can be thankful that Al Franken is working to avoid another massively destructive and costly US war in the Middle East. Now that it is clear that diplomacy can work, we need to show that Minnesotans stand with Senator Franken and will do everything in their power to give this agreement a chance to succeed and become a model for resolving other conflicts. But with opponents of diplomacy about to go all out to stop this, we have to be out there right away, visibly and loudly.

President Obama has announced that the U.S., Iran, and the international community have reached a historic agreement to prevent Iran from developing a nuclear weapon, hopefully putting us on a path to ending decades of hostility. Unfortunately, war hawks in Congress are committed to undermining diplomacy. Over the next 60 days, we're going to have to campaign hard to make sure Congress doesn't squander this opportunity. The president promised "aggressive, principled diplomacy," with Iran when he campaigned for president in the 2008 primary and general election. Now that he's shown that diplomacy can work, we need to show that the American people stand with him and will do everything in their power to give this agreement a chance to succeed and become a model for resolving other conflicts. But with opponents of diplomacy about to go all out to stop this, we have to be out there right away, visibly and loudly.

The nuclear program agreement with Iran.

I want my voice and others to really be heard! Our country needs to lead the way in Peace and Security through diplomacy and President Obama is taking that action. Please support his efforts.

We've seen what "diplomacy by force" can do to the security of our nation. This agreement does not say that we can never use force to prevent Iran from getting "the Bomb," but it does give peace a chance. Let us not forget that nothing builds up national debt like war does.

Wars are unwinnable. Joni Ernst is at the frontlines of war hawks in the US Senate advocating war. This must change.

As an American Jew, I believe that the US and Israel's security will be enhanced by this treaty.

I served in the U.S. Navy from 1965-1970. I spend enough time at the VA to see the result of wars. We also have the wounded warrior project (passing the hat to care for the wounded). Before you help create more wounded, let's take care of the ones we have, keeping the promise we were given when we enlisted.

On July 15, the President announced a historic deal between the U.S., European nations, China, Russia, and Iran that would curb the Iranian nuclear program, strengthen diplomacy, and dramatically reduce the likelihood of another war in the Middle East. But already, Republicans in Congress are lining up to try and kill this major chance for peace. Democrats in Congress are going to have to stand strong, but Sen. Cardin has, for months, wavered on his support for diplomacy. Sen. Cardin's vote is going to be critical here which is why it's so important that he hear that Americans support a nuclear deal by a 2-1 margin and his constituents want him to support this deal.

Black on Black Discrimination is disgusting

The Republican leadership and members of Congress, along with some Democrats, want to wreck the Iran Nuclear Agreement. The alternatives are war, death, possible nuclear proliferation, and more money for our industrial war machine, as well as separating ourselves from our allies. We've tried isolation and sanctions. It is now time to be serious about peace. This is an opportunity to demonstrate to our allies and to the Middle East that we stand for peace.

After lengthy negotiations, including working closely with both Russia and China, President Obama's Administration is bringing an Iranian Nuclear Limitation Treaty to Congress for ratification. I believe that this is the best possible agreement to be reached on this matter and strongly encourage ratification. Please support this agreement.
