Demand Defense Secretary Hegseth Resign

New reports that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth disclosed highly sensitive, likely classified details of deadly attacks in Yemen in yet another Signal chat — a publicly available, non-secure messaging app — are deeply concerning. Call for Secretary Hegseth’s resignation and demand qualified leadership at the Pentagon.

Why is this important?

The Pentagon is in chaos as distrust spreads under Defense Secretary Hegseth’s leadership. Now the Trump administration is scrambling — including emerging reports that the White House is considering showing Hegseth the door.

For weeks now, and without authorization from Congress, the Trump administration has ordered multiple airstrikes against Houthis in Yemen. The rising death toll includes innocent people and has set an entire region on edge.

Pete Hegseth hasn’t bothered to get Congress’s permission to conduct these counterproductive and deadly strikes, but he apparently has no problem sharing them with members of his family. That’s right, it turns out Hegseth has been bragging about failed military operations in yet another Signal group, this one including his wife and brother.

We want answers, and we’re not alone: Democratic lawmakers, including multiple House Armed Service Committee members, are furiously calling for accountability. Just recently, the first Congressional Republican even expressed support for removing Hegseth.

Secretary Hegseth’s tenure is unraveling in front of our eyes. With enough pressure from activists like you, we can pull the threads that will oust Hegseth for good and demand qualified leadership at the Pentagon.

Your elected officials in Congress need to hear from you: Sign now to demand Hegseth’s resignation.
