Pentagon Policy Shop Criticized by Republican Senators
Republican senators have expressed frustration with the Pentagon's policy shop, citing a lack of cooperation with congressional oversight.
"I can’t even get a response, and we’re on your team!”
Said Sen. Dan Sullivan during a confirmation hearing for three Pentagon nominees. The hearing, held by the Senate Armed Services Committee, saw senators from both parties air their frustrations with the Pentagon's opaque decision-making.
- Lawmakers were not informed of key moves, such as the withdrawal of US troops from Romania.
- Pentagon policy chief Elbridge Colby's decision-making process was described as opaque.
Armed Services Chairman Roger Wicker noted that despite a generally positive relationship with the Pentagon, the committee has faced challenges in getting information from the policy shop.
