Several representatives in the Federal government, including Subcommittee on National Security Ranking Member and 6th District Congressman Glenn Grothman, have sent a letter to Chairwoman Carolyn Maloney requesting an immediate full Committee hearing to conduct congressional oversight of the deteriorating situation in Kabul, Afghanistan.
The letter called the situation a “humanitarian crisis” and said that not scheduling the hearing is a “dereliction of duty and an abdication of congressional authority and responsibility.”
They are also looking for the answers to several questions, including “Did President Biden and his Administration conceal any intelligence from Congress and relay different information to the American people than the intelligence suggested related to the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan?”, and “Will U.S. financial or other assistance to Afghanistan continue considering it could be construed as providing material support to a foreign terror organization?”
