Mr. Chairman, Congress must support an inspector general position that ensures military equal opportunity programs work and sounds the alarm when extremism takes root in our military. What we are seeing here today is a small group of MAGA extremists holding the NDAA hostage in their efforts to politicize the Department. I urge my moderate colleagues across the aisle who don't want to fire criminal investigators, who don't want to tell our servicemembers that they don't belong, who don't want to leave military families high and dry to please vote ``no'' on this amendment. Use your conscience.
