  4. On Monday, the Senate armed services committee approved Pete #Hegseth’s nomination,
    But he awaits confirmation by the full chamber.
    In a joint statement, Elizabeth #Warren, Tim #Kaine, Mark #Kelly, Mazie #Hirono, Richard #Blumenthal, Tammy #Duckworth, Jeanne #Shaheen and Kirsten #Gillibrand
    👉 demand meetings with Pete Hegseth before the full Senate votes on his confirmation:
    The senator's joint statement reads:
    "In a sworn statement under the penalty of perjury, a new report shows U.S. Defense Secretary nominee Pete Hegseth was ‘erratic and aggressive’ toward his second wife over many years, to the point that she feared for her safety.
    The report also details repeated instances of his drinking alcohol in excess, including the need to be dragged out of a strip club while in uniform.
    This affidavit is part of a disturbing pattern of behavior that has been documented through numerous public and private reports.
    The affidavit also raises additional questions about the thoroughness of his FBI background check during a rushed confirmation process.
    Despite repeated requests, Mr. Hegseth has refused to meet with the vast majority of Democratic members of the Senate Armed Services Committee.
    We request that Mr. Hegseth meet privately with every interested lawmaker on the committee before the Senate votes on his nomination
    so that we can have frank discussions about the new information that has come to light.
    It would be irresponsible and contrary to our constitutional duty for the Senate to vote to confirm this nomination before such meetings have occurred."
