The individual should operate out of your office for maximum access to, and collaboration with and
among, the myriad of committees with components of the Iran and broader sanctions portfolio.
Should you be interested in pursuing this matter, I have the ideal candidate. My former Staff Director
on the Committee on Foreign Affairs, Dr. Yleem Poblete, who served as my principal advisor on the
Committee staff for close to 20 years, was the principal staff member for the House on virtually every
sanctions bill and Iran-specific legislation from the original ILSA to the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria
Human Rights Act of 2012. Her doctoral dissertation focused on sanctions imposed to address terrorism and
proliferation threats, with Syria and Iran as case studies. Since her separation, she has written extensively and
guest lectured on these and other foreign policy issues, and, in recent months, has been serving as a Senior
Advisor in my personal office in a limited capacity to assist with the recent Chairman Portrait unveiling,
among other projects.
