As a mom, I am concerned about the safety and security of our families and our communities. Investing in those foreign companies who do business in Iran inadvertently supports the world's leading sponsor of terrorism -- and that is a dangerous proposition for our families. Does Ohio really want to invest in foreign companies that are willing to do business with an Iranian government that underwrites terrorist groups such as Hamas and Hezbollah and is rapidly building nuclear weapons capability? I think the answer is an emphatic no. Thus, I will continue to work diligently for passage of this bill to protect our tax and retirement dollars – and our families – from the scourge of terrorism.
