Democratic Lawmakers Call for Immediate Sanctions on Iran over Missile Tests
(Jewish Journal of Los Angeles) Jacob Kornbluh - Seven Democratic lawmakers on Wednesday called on the Obama Administration to impose immediate punitive sanctions in response to Iran's recent violations of UN Security Council resolutions by conducting two ballistic missile tests. "We call on the Administration to immediately announce new U.S. sanctions against individuals and entities involved in Iran's ballistic missile program to ensure Iran is held accountable for its actions." A letter sent to President Obama was signed by Representatives Nita Lowey, Eliot Engel, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Albio Sires, Gerry Connolly, Susan Davis and Jerry Nadler.
