Team, it's Mark.

I am suing the Secretary of Defense.

After 25 years in uniform and another 5 in the United States Senate, I never imagined I’d have to do something like this. Hegseth has left me no choice.

Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth want to use the power of the White House and the Department of Defense to punish me because they don’t like what I have to say. Their attacks are directed at me right now, but they’re trying to send a message to every retired member of the military:

Speak out against us and we will come after you with every tool we have at our disposal. We’ll censure you, we’ll threaten your rank and retirement, and we might even court-martial you.

It’s unconstitutional, so I’m suing them. Beyond this lawsuit, it’s important we send a message to Trump and Hegseth to show them just how many people are on this team to defend constitutional rights. That’s where you come in.

I’ve been truly humbled by the support people have sent my way over the past couple of months. It means the world to me that so many of you care about what Trump and Hegseth are trying to do.

That’s how we’ve made it this far, and it’s how we’ll get to the other side of this chapter in our nation’s history. Together.

If you’ve been waiting for the right time to make a stand and join the fight, this is it.

Please, if you can spare a quick donation, can I count on you to chip in a contribution, split between my campaign and Forward Majority?

Don’t give up the ship.
