Malliotakis Statement on USA's Action to End Iran's Reign of Terror

Image February 28, 2026 Press Release (NEW YORK, NY) - Congresswoman Nicole Malliotakis released the following statement regarding U.S. Military action in Iran. "The United States has taken decisive and courageous action against Iran to defend our citizens, interests, and partners after the leading state sponsor of terrorism would not negotiate in good faith or commit to diplomacy over nuclear capabilities. Iran is responsible for attacks that have killed American civilians and service members and its continuous declarations of “Death to America” while pursuing advanced nuclear capabilities threaten the United States and our allies. The United States, the Middle East and the world will be a safer and more peaceful place when the oppressive and murderous Iranian regime is eliminated. May God bless our troops as they conduct this courageous and noble mission."
