Demand Real Hearings, Not Roundtables, for Oversight Committee

To: Rep. Casar, Pres. Trump, Sen. Cruz, Sen. Cornyn

From: A constituent in Converse, TX

April 23

The Oversight Committee must stop substituting roundtables for actual hearings. Real accountability requires witnesses under oath, not informal discussions that let officials dodge tough questions. Roundtables allow participants to avoid sworn testimony and the legal consequences that come with lying to Congress. When the committee holds a hearing instead of a roundtable, witnesses face real pressure to tell the truth. That distinction matters when we're trying to get answers about potential wrongdoing or misuse of taxpayer dollars. I need you to insist that the Oversight Committee conduct formal hearings with subpoena power and sworn testimony. The American people deserve more than political theater disguised as oversight. We need binding testimony that can actually lead to accountability when officials break the law or abuse their positions.
