Senate Democrats Press Hegseth on Pentagon Testosterone Screening Policy
A group of five Senate Democrats, led by Richard Blumenthal, Mazie Hirono, Gary Peters, Elizabeth Warren, and Ruben Gallego, sent a letter to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth demanding detailed information about the Pentagon's new testosterone screening policy for military personnel. The lawmakers are seeking specifics on how the directive will be implemented and its scientific justification. The letter, sent on Friday, reflects growing Democratic scrutiny of the policy, which they argue lacks transparency and evidence-based reasoning. The senators are pressing for answers on the policy's scope, criteria for screening, and potential impacts on service members.
