Congressional Oversight Required on Military Firings

To: Lt. Gov. Patrick, Sen. Cruz, Rep. Dean, Rep. Moran, Pres. Trump, Gov. Abbott, Sen. Hughes, Sen. Cornyn

From: A verified voter in Kilgore, TX

April 6

Investigate every firing, forced resignation, and promotion denial carried out by Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth. Are qualified officers being removed for refusing unlawful orders? Congress has already tolerated a pattern of reckless and destabilizing actions from President Donald J. Trump. Will you now ignore potential unlawful conduct within the military? Oversight is your constitutional duty. Silence suggests complicity. Will you investigate, subpoena records, and question leadership, or will you answer for inaction if illegal conduct is confirmed? Are you prepared to face accountability, including under international law, for failure to act? Take immediate action to address these concerns, including the removal of those responsible.
