Mike Waltz Offers Resolution Condemning Pete Buttigieg, Calls for His Resignation

This week, U.S. Rep. Mike Waltz, R-Fla., offered a resolution “to condemn U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg for his actions, or lack thereof, in office.”

Waltz also called for Buttigieg to resign.

“Over the last two years, Secretary Buttigieg has gone AWOL during multiple national crises,” said Waltz. “From failing to immediately respond to last month’s major economic, environmental, and humanitarian disaster in East Palestine to neglecting his duties during a historic supply chain crisis, commercial flight crisis, rail worker strike, and so much more, Buttigieg has endangered and failed the American people time and time again. That’s why I am calling for his resignation.”

Waltz has reeled in nine Republican co-sponsors, including U.S. Reps. Bill Posey and Greg Steube of Florida.

The resolution was sent to the U.S. House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee.
