Please back President Obama's diplomatic approach to Iran. Now is not the time to undermine negotiations with calls for increased sanctions or unrealistic demands for a final deal.
Don't send us down a path that could lead to another senseless war in the Middle East. House majority leader Eric Cantor is working on a hawkish bill that would torpedo President Obama's interim agreement with Iran by setting unrealistic goals for the final deal. If he succeeds he'll tie President Obama's hands, destroy negotiations, and edge us closer to another senseless conflict in the Middle East.
This isn't a fringe bill—it's one that is gaining ground among Democratic members of the House and if we do nothing will become bipartisan. We know diplomacy works—we've seen it in action over the last few weeks.
Why is this important?
If we don't act now Congress could shatter the deal with Iran now and we would lose this once in a generation opportunity. The interim deal with Iran is a win for everyone - Iran has agreed to opening itself up to the potential of daily inspections and in turn the US has offered some relief from sanctions**. That’s why 64% of the American public, 100 rabbis and leading military and national security experts support the President’s diplomatic path with Iran
