Larsen Urges Administration To Reach Strong, Lasting Nuclear Agreement With Iran

Rep. Rick Larsen, WA-02, urged the Obama Administration in a letter with other U.S. House members this week to protect U.S. security interests in nuclear negotiations with Iran, while underscoring that he will carefully review any agreement that arises out of the ongoing negotiations.

Larsen signed onto a letter to the President highlighting some of the remaining concerns about the negotiations, including access to suspected nuclear sites and long-lasting constraints on Iran’s nuclear program.

“I continue to support the ongoing negotiations about Iran’s nuclear program, and I signed a responsible letter with my colleagues urging the President to remain strong in ensuring Iran cannot build a nuclear weapon.

“Negotiations are at a critical juncture, and I am hopeful that a diplomatic solution will prevail. I will review any agreement and the feedback I get on it from my constituents to make sure it prevents a nuclear Iran and upholds U.S. interests,” Larsen said.
