An Open Letter

To: Sen. Luján, Sen. Heinrich, Rep. Leger Fernandez

From: A verified voter in Santa Fe, NM

May 3

If you are not aware, Congressman Troy Nehls has been wearing military awards to which he is not entitled, including a Bronze Star. I have included the link to a CBS article outlining his stolen valor. https://www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/troy-nehls-bronze-star-combat-infantryman-badge/ As a retired Navy Commander with twenty years of continuous service, including a six month tour in Kuwait with the Expeditionary Medical Facility- Camp Pendleton detachment, 2005-06, I find his actions reprehensible. As a nurse with the Wounded Warrior Battalion-Camp Pendleton, I worked with Marines who saw actual combat, suffered grievous injuries and watched their fellow Marines die. Congressman Nehls did none of these things. To present himself in this light is a slap in the face to every service member who was involved in actual combat. I ask that you request an ethics committee investigation into this stolen valor and move to expel him from Congress. https://dl-rapidbot.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/attachments/1/9b5c/35eb/9b5c35eb-68cb-4d5d-97c3-e3b19c843405.php
