Pete Gallego really doesn’t want to talk about Iran

August 25, 2016

Gallego IranHas anyone checked in with Pete Gallego since Iran has been making headlines again? Not only has Gallego stayed radio silent on the $400 million ransom payment to the world’s largest state sponsor of terror, but he has flat-out refused to tell voters where he stands on President Obama’s dangerous nuclear deal.

Gallego is doing his absolute best to duck Iran issues in hopes of avoiding another embarrassing, incoherent diatribe like happened in this interview with the Texas Tribune in 2012. The look says it all.

If only there was somebody out there that could dig into Gallego’s positions and help educate voters on substantive policy issues just 74 days out from the election.

NRCC Comment: “Pete Gallego is doing his best to stonewall voters about his positions on vital issues of national security. 23rd District families deserve to know where Gallego stands on the dangerous nuclear deal with Iran and the Administration’s reckless ransom payment that only encourages more hostage taking of Americans in the future.” – NRCC Spokesman Zach Hunter
