which was referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs 
RESOLUTION 
Standing with Israel as it works to dismantle Iran’s nuclear 
enrichment capabilities and defends itself against Iranian 
attacks on civilians. 
Whereas, on February 27, 2023, the International Atomic 
Energy Agency (IAEA) reported that the Islamic Repub-
lic of Iran had enriched uranium to 83.7 percent, which 
is sufficient for a crude nuclear device and just short of 
the standard 90 percent threshold typically needed for 
weapons-grade fissile material; 
Whereas, on September 16, 2023, the IAEA reported that 
the Islamic Republic of Iran banned the activities of 
nearly one-third of the IAEA’s most experienced nuclear 
inspectors in Iran, a decision that, according to IAEA

Director-General Rafael Grossi, harmed the IAEA’s abil-
ity to monitor Iran’s nuclear program; 
Whereas, on November 15, 2024, the IAEA reported that the 
Islamic Republic of Iran has continued to expand its en-
richment facilities and install additional advanced cen-
trifuges, including at the Natanz Nuclear Facility, where 
there are 15 cascades of advanced centrifuges, and the 
Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant, where there are ad-
vanced preparations for the expansion of the facility; 
Whereas, on February 26, 2025, the IAEA reported that the 
Islamic Republic of Iran has between 5 and 7 metric tons 
of enriched uranium, and had increased its total stockpile 
of 60 percent highly enriched uranium to 274.8 kilo-
grams (605.83 pounds), which, if further enriched, could 
be sufficient to produce six nuclear weapons; 
Whereas, on May 31, 2025, the IAEA reported that the stock 
of 60 percent-enriched uranium of the Islamic Republic 
of Iran had increased to an estimated 408.6 kg, equiva-
lent to 900.8 pounds, which is an amount that if enriched 
further could be sufficient enough to produce at least 
nine nuclear bombs; 
Whereas, on June 12, 2025, the IAEA Board of Governors, 
for the first time since 2005, adopted a resolution finding 
the Islamic Republic of Iran to be in breach of its non- 
proliferation obligations under the Non-Proliferation 
Treaty (NPT) Safeguards Agreement, which Iran signed 
in 1974; 
Whereas the IAEA’s resolution was supported by 19 coun-
tries, including the United States, the United Kingdom, 
France, and Germany;

Whereas the Islamic Republic of Iran responded to the IAEA 
action by announcing it would further expand its nuclear 
program, including by opening an additional enrichment 
facility and taking other measures; 
Whereas, President of the United States Donald Trump has 
been clear that Iran should not be allowed to have a nu-
clear weapon, including on April 7, 2025, when he stated, 
‘‘it’s not a complicated formula. Iran cannot have a nu-
clear weapon. That’s all there is.’’; 
Whereas, the Islamic Republic of Iran has repeatedly rejected 
good-faith diplomatic efforts by the United States and 
others to address its nuclear program, including on April 
8, 2025, when it rejected the dismantlement of its nu-
clear program, stating, ‘‘Our nuclear program cannot be 
dismantled.’’; 
Whereas, on April 12, 2025, President Trump gave the Is-
lamic Republic of Iran 60 days to negotiate a new agree-
ment in good faith; 
Whereas the Islamic Republic of Iran failed to negotiate in 
good faith with the United States and continued to en-
rich weapons-grade uranium; 
Whereas, on June 13, 2025, in the face of an existential nu-
clear threat from the Islamic Republic of Iran and after 
exhausting all diplomatic avenues, Israel conducted intel-
ligence-driven preemptive strikes to prevent Iran from ac-
quiring nuclear weapons and such capability explicitly de-
signed to achieve the destruction of Israel and the United 
States; 
Whereas these strikes were proportional and targeted against 
Iran’s nuclear sites, Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps 
(IRGC) facilities and leaders, nuclear scientists, and re-

lated military targets and included the elimination of 
many senior Islamic Republic military leaders sanctioned 
by the United States for terrorist activities, including 
Hossein Salami, and Mohammad Khatami; 
Whereas Iran’s nuclear sites at the Natanz Nuclear Facility 
and nuclear sites in Khondab, Khorramabad, Isfahan and 
Shiraz were targeted and either destroyed or severely de-
graded; 
Whereas in retaliation, the Islamic Republic of Iran has in-
discriminately targeted Israeli civilian centers in cities 
like Tel Aviv, Ramat Gan, Bat Yam, Rehovot, Haifa, 
Petah Tikvah, and Jerusalem; 
Whereas 24 Israelis have already been killed by these attacks 
and over 590 Israelis have been wounded, with the threat 
of additional attacks by the regime likely in the future; 
Whereas a nuclear Iran poses a grave threat to the United 
States, Israel, and the broader Middle East; 
Whereas Israel’s preemptive strikes achieved national security 
objectives without risking American lives; and 
Whereas the United States supports Israel in its continuing 
efforts against Iran’s nuclear aspirations; Now, therefore, 
be it 
Resolved, That the House of Representatives sup-
ports— 
(1) stands with Israel as it takes targeted mili-
tary actions to dismantle Iran’s nuclear enrichment 
capabilities and defend itself against the existential 
threat of a nuclear-armed Iran;
