Ted Yoho Weighs In on Iran Nuclear Deal
From his perch on the U.S. House Foreign Affairs Committee, freshman U.S. Rep. Ted Yoho, R-Fla., said he welcomed the major powers agreement with Iran over its nuclear program but did urge some caution.
"I welcome the opportunity for diplomacy, it is always preferable to sending our sons and daughters into harm's way, Yoho said on Monday. Let it never be forgotten that military action has its costs, certainly on the American taxpayer, but most importantly on the lives and families of the brave men and women we send into the battlefield. For that reason, I am hopeful for peace; however, President Rouhani's past actions and statements require a skeptical eye. Iran remains the world's leading state sponsor of terror. In this deal, the devil is truly in the details. The verify part needs to come before the trust."
