STOP A NUCLEAR IRAN: GETTING INVOLVED

Iran’s quest to develop an illicit nuclear weapons program is one of the most urgent threats facing the U.S. and the international community. Since its founding in 2008, United Against Nuclear Iran (UANI) has effectively compelled numerous businesses, firms and entities to exit Iran while also promoting the strengthening of U.S. sanctions law.

You can play a vital role in preventing Iran from becoming a regional superpower with a nuclear weapons capability. Specifically, UANI’s education and advocacy programs enable private citizens to take direct action to compel entities and individuals to end their economic support of the Iranian regime and ensure the regime’s economic and diplomatic isolation.

WHAT CAN WE DO?

UANI’s Iran Business Registry (IBR) lists over 1,000 companies with reported business activity in Iran. The IBR has since grown to become a resource used widely by the media, professional researchers and academics as well as elected officials and policymakers. By way of the IBR, UANI supporters can send direct messages to business entities working with the Iranian regime in order to raise the reputational hazards and public pressure on such entities to cease their Iran business.

A number of prominent firms have decided to end their Iran business as a result of these tactics including ABB, Aker Wirth, Bobcat, Caterpillar, Eaton, Fiat, Huntsman, Hyundai Motor, Ingersoll Rand, Komatsu, KPMG, Maersk, Porsche, Volvo and many others (www.uani.com/our-initiatives/campaign-successes). Please join this effort by signing up to receive UANI action alerts at www.uani.com/signup – it is the single best way to take direct action to isolate the Iranian regime.
