John,
Since his appointment was confirmed, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has continuously shown that he is absolutely unfit to hold one of the most powerful positions in our government.
He has a history of reckless behavior, disregard for the rule of law, and abuse of authority — a record that he's continued in this position and which has put lives at risk. It seems like every day, Hegseth finds a new way to undermine our democracy.
Members of Congress are calling for accountability, but they need to go a step further and prevent any further misconduct by impeaching Pete Hegseth. Sign on now if you agree.
Here are a few reasons why Pete Hegseth is absolutely unfit for his office. He has:
- A longstanding pattern of reckless conduct in his personal life that raised serious concerns about his judgment and fitness to serve during his confirmation process.
- Been accused of abusing his authority and blatantly disregarding the Constitution.
- Failure to respect congressional oversight.
- Mishandled sensitive and classified information.
- Put American troops and national security at risk.
- Undermined public trust in the Department of Defense.
All of the warnings members of Congress raised during Hegseth's confirmation hearings have gone unheeded, and it's time for action
The Constitution is clear: when a high-ranking official abuses their power, Congress has a duty to act. Congress must impeach Pete Hegseth to safeguard our democracy.
But Congress rarely moves without pressure. That pressure has to come from us, we need to act immediately.
Sign on now to tell your Senators and Representative to act now to impeach Pete Hegseth. Demand accountability and transparency.
Thank you for stepping up.
— Democratic Values
