"I support the president, I support this action. But at the same time, we've got to pay for this. So, how is this going to be dealt with? I would actually like to see Iran pay for this, whether it's $20 billion or $200 billion, whatever it is."
"I don't see any reason why the people that started this war - it's not the United States of America - it's Iran."
"Well, I think we gotta pay for this somehow, right? Right now, Iran's not gonna pay for it, but under a different paradigm where the ayatollah's not in charge, and we have a different system of governance."
Rep. Scott Perry suggested a funding mechanism for the $200 billion needed to continue the war on Iran, proposing that Iran should pay for it. The Department of Defense is seeking these supplemental funds, with the war costing about $1 billion daily. Perry expressed support for the president's actions but emphasized the need for funding. He argued that Iran has resources and should be responsible for the costs, despite acknowledging that Iran is unlikely to pay under the current regime.
