Uphold Posse Comitatus and Block Domestic Troop Use

To: Sen. Cruz, Rep. Roy, Sen. Cornyn

From: A constituent in Austin, TX

October 1, 2025

As a constituent living in Austin (78759), I am alarmed by Secretary Hegseth’s conference remarks calling for ideological loyalty tests, undermining diversity initiatives, and threatening resignations of senior officers. This risks politicizing the armed forces and eroding civil-military trust. I urge you to: • Demand oversight hearings on these actions. • Reaffirm congressional limits on domestic troop deployments under the Posse Comitatus Act. • Protect whistleblowers and inspector general functions from retaliation or rollback. Thank you for standing up for civilian control, military professionalism, and our democratic safeguards.
