Pete Hegseth — the most unqualified Defense Secretary in modern history — blocked the promotion of two Black and two women Army officers.
Let’s stop playing.
This isn’t a coincidence — it’s discrimination.
These are servicemembers who earned their rank, served with distinction, and put their lives on the line for this country — and they deserve better than this mess.
I’m demanding answers.

I’m deeply saddened by the passing of my dear friend and colleague, Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee. She was a tenacious advocate for civil rights and a tireless fighter, improving the lives of her constituents. Our country is better for her service.
My prayers are with Sheila’s family and loved ones. She will be remembered for her good works and sorely missed in the halls of Congress.
