WHERE ARE YOU? Time to Enact the War Powers & Care for Our Service Members

To: Sen. Banks, Sen. Young, Rep. Messmer

From: A verified voter in Mount Vernon, IN

April 11

You need to get BACK to Washington D. C. and get back to work – NOW. This president and his administration are LYING to the American people about the war and the service members are NOT getting the protection they deserve in this war and a war that the American people do not want. U.S. military personnel have publicly disputed claims made by the Sec. of Defense, Hegseth, regarding the protection of troops at bases in the Middle East, specifically in Kuwait. Survivors of the Iranian drone strike on March 1, 2026, which resulted in 6 DEAD Americans, accused Hegseth of misrepresenting the preparedness and security of their position. Service members are bravely speaking out and saying, NO – Hegseth and the administration are LYING. Why aren’t you back to work to start acting on your Article 1 War Powers duties and supporting our service people?!?! What a disgrace – when the active military has to say publicly that their leaders are LIARS during this war by choice that the American people do NOT want – we have reached a new low and the disrespect displayed to our exceptional servicemen and servicewomen… is shameful and criminal.
