AI Summary

  • House resolution condemning Iran for failing to cooperate with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and lacking transparency about its nuclear program

  • Cites IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi's January 23, 2025 report that Iran increased production of 60% enriched uranium from 7 kg to over 30 kg per month, now holding approximately 200 kg—enough for at least 5 nuclear weapons if further enriched to 90%

  • Calls on Iran to immediately fulfill its Non-Proliferation Treaty obligations, resolve outstanding safeguards issues, and provide IAEA inspectors full access to all nuclear sites

  • Urges the U.S. government to coordinate with allies on diplomatic and economic measures to hold Iran accountable, and to work with the UK, France, and Germany on UN Security Council snapback proceedings before the mechanism expires in October 2025

  • Asserts that if international efforts fail and Iran withdraws from the Non-Proliferation Treaty or crosses the nuclear threshold, Congress should authorize the use of U.S. Armed Forces against Iran
