Blaine Luetkemeyer (MO-03) issued the following statement after voting to support a clean renewal of the Iran Sanctions Act that was passed by the House of Representatives. \r\n\u201cThe outgoing administration has asked for a delay on renewing the Iran Sanctions Act which tells Americans once again that this president refuses to take our nation\u2019s foreign policies seriously,\u201d Luetkemeyer said. \u201cThis legislation targets entities that invest in Iran\u2019s energy sector, the driving force behind its economy. I fully believe these sanctions must remain in place until we can verify that Iran no longer poses a threat to the United States and her allies.\u201d\r\nThis legislation reauthorizes the 1996 Iran Sanctions Act for 10 years, through Dec. 31, 2016. Under the Iran Sanctions Act, sanctions may be imposed against foreign companies or entities that invest in the development of Iran\u2019s oil and gas industry. The Iran Sanctions Act is set to expire in December of this year.", 1, "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z", "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["http://luetkemeyer.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=398812"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.0324402246624231, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
