Ed Perlmutter: Supports the Iran Nuclear Nonproliferation Agreement

Ed supports the Iran Nuclear Nonproliferation Agreement negotiated by the US, Germany, China, UK, France, Russia, the EU, and Iran. The US and its international partners have committed to a diplomatic solution that Ed believes reduces and limits Iran's ability to develop or manufacture nuclear weapons and is in America's best interests. This Agreement should also reduce nuclear tensions in the Middle East and will make our friend and ally, Israel, safer and less prone to nuclear conflict with Iran.

Ed Perlmutter: Airstrikes and more, to degrade & destroy ISIS capabilities

ISIS is a serious threat. The US continues to take the fight to ISIS by destroying their capabilities and combating extremism abroad. We have the most robust and capable counterterrorism capabilities in the world and are working with our international allies to disrupt terrorist cells abroad and at home. Whether it is screening refugees, sustaining airstrikes in Iraq and Syria, utilizing US Special Forces or cutting off revenue streams, the US is working hard to degrade and destroy ISIS capabilities.

Hunter Hill: I fought to defend our values in Afghanistan and Iraq

I am running to cast a bold vision for Georgia that can only come about with true, conservative leadership. Republicans have an opportunity to bring about sweeping change in Georgia, and I refuse to stand by and simply mark time. Georgians expect and demand results, and I am ready to deliver.

In the coming months, I'm going to take my message directly to Georgians. I am dedicated to America's founding values and principles of God-given rights, limited government, free enterprise and expanded liberty. I have fought to defend these values in Afghanistan and Iraq and in the Georgia Senate.

Tim Walz: Served overseas in support of Operation Enduring Freedom

Upon his 1990 return from teaching in China, Tim served full time in the Army National Guard. He joined his battalion overseas in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. After 24 years in the Army National Guard, Command Sergeant Major Walz retired from the 1-125th Field Artillery Battalion in 2005. When he retired, Tim was the highest-ranking enlisted National Guard soldier in southern Minnesota.

"When I enlisted in the National Guard at the age of 17, I never imagined that I would serve for 24 years. I knew that I was ready to accept the responsibility that comes with serving our country. Over the years, I discovered that I had the capacity to lead--a duty that I strive to fulfill each and every day. The honor of serving alongside my neighbors in southern Minnesota was a privilege."

Mark Green: Wrote book about capture of Saddam Hussein

Mark came to Tennessee as an army special operation flight surgeon assigned to the 160th Special Ops Aviation Regiment. There he planned and flew on some of the war on terror's most covert operations. His most memorable mission was the capture of Saddam Hussein. Dr. Green interviewed Saddam for six hours on the night of his capture and wrote a book detailing the interview and his service with our military's "Jedi Nights," as he calls them.
