The public deserves full transparency and accountability in the vetting process for high-level government appointments. Thorough FBI background checks are a vital step to ensure the integrity and fitness of Cabinet nominees. These checks protect against potential misconduct, conflicts of interest, or other concerning issues that could undermine public trust. Attempts to circumvent this established practice raise troubling questions about the administration's commitment to ethical governance. A rigorous vetting process upholds democratic principles and safeguards the nation's interests. I urge a commitment to comprehensive FBI background checks for all Cabinet nominees to maintain faith in our institutions.
