Call Hegseth Witnesses to Testify

News articles in the Washington Post and other media are reporting that the FBI neglected to investigate crucial witnesses for its pre-hearing report on Defense Secretary nominee Peter Hesgeth’s fitness for office. Among these witnesses is a woman who accused Hesgeth of sexual assault, and individuals who worked with him who have alleged financial mismanagement and excessive drinking while on the job. It is imperative that Congress summon these witnesses to testify and provide an unbiased account of Hesgeth’s fitness. This nomination holds significant importance for veterans, military families, and all those who rely on the military for national security. Congress must ensure that it has comprehensive information about Hesgeth’s fitness before making a decision.
