I am writing to express my profound concern regarding the recent reports about the mishandling of sensitive military information by National Security Advisor Mike Waltz and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. According to multiple sources, including The Atlantic, these officials inadvertently included a journalist in a Signal group chat where they discussed operational details of planned military strikes in Yemen. This breach exposed critical information, such as attack timings, targets, and operational strategies, to unauthorized individuals, posing a significant risk to national security and the safety of our service members. The casual dissemination of such sensitive details reflects a troubling disregard for the protocols designed to protect our nation. As a concerned constituent, I urge you to publicly call for the resignation or removal of Mr. Waltz and Mr. Hegseth from their positions. Their actions demonstrate a lapse in judgment that is incompatible with the responsibilities entrusted to them. Furthermore, I implore you to exercise Congress’s oversight authority to investigate this matter thoroughly. As an equal branch of government, it is imperative that Congress holds the executive accountable to prevent such breaches from recurring. The American people rely on their elected representatives to safeguard our nation’s security and uphold the integrity of our institutions. Thank you for your attention to this critical issue. I trust that you will act decisively to address these concerns and restore confidence in our national security apparatus.
