Rep. Calvert Reaction to Prime Minister Netanyahu’s Address

March 3, 2015

Today, Congressman Ken Calvert (CA-42) issued the following statement following Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's address to Congress:

"Iran cannot be allowed to develop nuclear weapons, and the United States should not be party to any agreement that allows them to move closer to that reality – now or in the future. Today, I was proud to stand and support Prime Minister Netanyahu. I have and I will continue to stand with Israel.

"I strongly agree with Prime Minister Netanyahu's assessment that Iran continues to conduct itself in a manner that is directly in line with a distorted, violent spectrum of Islam and is the primary state sponsor of terrorism in the world."
