Ranking Member Thompson: DHS Sec. Noem Must Testify on DOGE Access to DHS Systems, Comments on Dismantling FEMA, Attacks on Law Enforcement
(WASHINGTON) – Today, Rep. Bennie G. Thompson (D-MS), Ranking Member of the Committee on Homeland Security, sent a letter to Committee Chairman Mark Green (R-TN) to demand that he invite Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem to testify before the Committee to answer questions on Elon Musk and DOGE’s access to Department of Homeland Security IT systems, her and President Trump’s comments on dismantling FEMA, her attacks on law enforcement, and her not prioritizing cybersecurity:
Letter excerpt:
The Trump Administration’s policies are undermining our homeland security posture, and the Secretary has given no indication she will advocate for the Department or its workforce. Congressional oversight is a constitutional requirement and will be a national security imperative this Congress. I look forward to working with you to schedule this important hearing without delay.
