Iran
Deal
On
Wednesday
I
joined
FOX
News
to
discuss
the
#IranDeal.
Frankly,
it’s
hard
to
make
a
good
deal
with
bad
actors,
and
I
am
afraid
that
the
President’s
desperate
attempts
to
enhance
his
legacy
are
leading
us
down
a
dangerous
path.
Sanctions
relief,
arms
relief
–
these
are
not
steps
to
be
taken
unless
we
are
absolutely
certain
Iran’s
nuclear
program
is
dismantled,
and
that
simply
does
not
appear
to
be
the
case.
I
will
continue
to
review
the
terms
of
the
deal,
but
from
what
we
have
seen
so
far
it
does
not
seem
to
be
one
I
can
support.
Let
us
not
forget
that
this
is
a
regime
holding
four
Americans
indefinitely
without
reason,
and
these
negotiations
did
nothing
to
change
that.
Every
Child
Achieves
Act
This
week
the
Senate
voted
for
the
passage
of
the
Every
Child
Achieves
Act
(ECAA).
I
offered
an
amendment
to
the
bill
that
would’ve
increased
opportunities
for
low-income
families
and
their
children
to
have
more
choices
when
selecting
their
learning
environments.
The
Every
Child
Achieves
Act
takes
some
important
steps
towards
improving
our
nation’s
K-12
education
system
by
returning
decision
making
to
the
states
and
simplifying
some
testing
measures. Unfortunately,
I
believe
the
bill
did
not
go
far
enough
in
these
aspects,
and
I
simply
could
not
support
its
passage.
Too
many
of
our
nation’s
children
today
do
not
have
access
to
a
quality
education,
and
I
believe
that,
among
other
factors,
school
choice
is
a
critical
step
towards
providing
that
opportunity.
Education
is
a
building
block
of
my
Opportunity
Agenda,
and
I
will
continue
working
on
the
Senate
Education
Committee
to
give
parents
more
options
in
determining
the
best
educational
path
for
their
children.
When
parents
have
a
choice,
kids
have
a
better
chance.
Praying
for
Chattanooga
My
thoughts
and
prayers
are
with
the
families
of
the
four
U.S.
Marines
who
lost
their
lives
in
Chattanooga,
Tennessee
yesterday.
Our
Marines
are
important
to
us
and
will
always
be
in
our
hearts.
As
our
nation
mourns,
please
join
me
in
praying
for
their
loved
ones
who
were
deeply
hurt
by
this
tragedy.
Thanks
again
for
subscribing!
God
bless,
Tim |
