Israel Action—How to stop Iran from getting a nuclear weapon For 20 years, the pro-Israel community has been working to stop Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon. Although bi-partisan majorities in both the House and Senate oppose the current flawed deal, we now know it will be moving forward. However, our work to prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon, and protecting Israel’s security continues. Over the next few months, there will be a number of critical pieces of legislation introduced that address both the flaws of this agreement as well as Israel’s security concerns.
