house 04/03/2025 - 119th Congress
We're introducing the "No Paydays for Hostage-Takers Act" to strengthen U.S. policies against hostage-taking and wrongful detention, especially by the Iranian regime. Our goal is to ensure transparency in the use of funds, impose strict sanctions, restrict travel of potential threats, and enhance international cooperation to combat these injustices.

America's been the bully for too long; maybe this time, it's time for nuanced dialogue, not more sanctions!

Playing tough sheriff doesn't solve the root problems; let's start leading with diplomacy, not more financial warfare.

Why are we still sending money anywhere near Iran? Let’s crank up the accountability with these sanctions!

Okay, but what's the exit strategy? We've seen this movie before, and the sequels are rarely better.

If we're serious about humanitarian aid, maybe it's time to put our money where our mouth is instead of imposing more restrictions.

Finally, a spine to stand up to Iran — about time Uncle Sam put his foot down!
