DeLauro Backs Hegseth Impeachment

November 9, 2026 Press Release Today, Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro (CT-03) announced her intention to support articles of impeachment directed at failed Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth. “Pete Hegseth has failed as Secretary of Defense. His tenure has been defined by reckless decisions, deception, and dishonor – from dragging our country into a war with Iran without the authorization of Congress, to sharing military operation details in a Signal group chat, which the Pentagon’s own Inspector General found jeopardized troop safety. And that is just a fraction of the damage he has done. Our servicemembers deserve better. “President Trump will not fire him, so Congress must act. I support articles of impeachment against him.” Issues : National Security
