AJC testified in support of the Iranian Sanctions Enabling Act at a March 12, 2009, hearing of the House Financial Services Subcommittee on International Monetary Policy and Trade. In its testimony, AJC told Congress: "If our Administration pursues engagement with Iran, simultaneously intensifying sanctions is critical. Only tough sanctions would prevent Iran's rulers from seeing our overtures as a sign of weakness and motivate them to be forthcoming in negotiations. Firm goalposts and deadlines also are crucial to prevent Iran's regime from hiding behind negotiations as it completes its quest for nuclear arms."
