US Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) former Chair of the National Republican Senatorial Committee from 2007 to 2011. He is the senior United States Senator for Texas, addressed at the Free Iran World Summit 2021 on July 10, 2021.

Hi Friends, I’m Texas senator John Cornyn. I’d like to wish a warm welcome to today’s convention as you continue to fight for a free Iran. America stands in full solidarity with the Iranian people.

And we echo their call for liberty, democracy, and peace. And on the heals of yet another sham election, this changing of the guard can’t be just a blip on the radar.

We must take a unified stance in opposition to the oppression and tyranny that the hardliner Ebrahim Raisi represents.

I continue to urge president Biden to work closely with Congress to identify an effective and bipartisan approach to the threat posed by a nuclear Iran.

Thank you for having me with you today, and I hope you enjoy the rest of your convention.
