1)
Members of #Iran’s lobby, @NIACouncil, gaining a foothold in Congress.

- @mahyarsorour with @Ilhan

- @ethanazad with @RepRashida

- @samira_says with @RepBarbaraLee

(h/t @HanifJazayeri for his excellent research.)
2)
@mahyarsorour is the Senior Legislative Assistant to @Ilhan.
Sorour was a candidate for NIAC Action& #39;s leadership board back in July.
3)
@ethanazad is a staff member of @RepRashida who handles a "broad legislative portfolio, helping Tlaib’s office on foreign affairs… and government oversight."
4)
@samira_says is a permanent Legislative Assistant in the Office of @RepBarbaraLee. That could potentially give her (and the regime in Iran) access to U.S. citizens& #39; data.
5)
NIAC uses its foothold in Congress to issue such letters by @Ilhan, @RepBarbaraLee & @RepRaulGrijalva that was probably drafted by Iran& #39;s mullahs.
They& #39;re objecting to "the designation of Iran& #39;s Central Bank under terror authorities."
6)
BTW, this is a quick glimpse at how the regime in Iran funds terrorism.
7)
NIAC has established close relations with other members of Congress, including:

@ChrisMurphyCT

@RepDanKildee

@DonnaFEdwards

8)
@brhodes also established very close relations with NIAC & NIAC founder @tparsi.
10)
Considering the fact that NIAC is known to be Tehran’s lobby in the U.S., this deserves an investigation by the @FBI & @TheJusticeDept.

As far as the Iranian people are concerned, they have expressed their thoughts about NIAC through this hashtag:

#NIACLobbies4Mullahs
11)
Addendum:
This is all the @NIACouncil crowd can muster.
@Azodiac83
@SinaToossi
@Mollahasani

@JZarif is truly wasting money on you guys because you can& #39;t find anything better to say than elementary school language.
Some counter-argument! Very professional!
12)
Addendum:
And not surprised at all to see @lsarsour having close relations with #Iran lobby group @NIACouncil.
@hdagres
@AzadehMoaveni
@yasmin_khan
@tparsi
13)
Another known #Iran apologist/lobbyist is @NegarMortazavi, always ready to whitewash, justify & downgrade the crimes of the mullahs& #39; regime.
You can follow @HeshmatAlavi.
