A diplomatic solution to Iran's nuclear program is at hand through the multinational deal with Iran. Peace, not war, is a preferred course of action. We call on Congress to stand against needless escalation and future deployments of our troops, and vote to support the Iran deal.
Why is this important?
When President Obama announced that the U.S., Iran, and the international community had reached an historic agreement to prevent Iran from developing a nuclear weapon, it gave hope that we were on a path to ending decades of hostility.
Unfortunately, war hawks are lobbying Congress, undermining diplomacy. Several members of the Arizona Congressional Delegation are either 'undecided' or actively opposed to a diplomatic reduction in Iran's nuclear program. Over the next 60 days, we're going to have to campaign hard to make sure Arizona's Senators and Congressional Representatives don't squander this opportunity.
Now that President Obama has 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 going all out to stop this, we have to be out there right away, visibly and loudly. By signing this petition, you are letting Arizona's Congressional Delegation know that you want them to support the Iran deal, and oppose a needless escalation to another Middle-East war.
