Congress must stop confirming unqualified nominees

Placing unqualified candidates in essential government positions continues to cause great harm to America. The Dragon Bravo wildfire is just one example.

Without the best and brightest experts protecting us from both domestic and foreign threats, our country will continue to decline.

The top scientists, military personnel, economists, medical professionals, environmentalists, researchers, etc., are critical for our national security.

As American citizens, we must demand our elected officials confirm only the most qualified experts for these critical government positions.

We must also communicate to them that if unqualified candidates are confirmed, we the people have the power to vote for better representation in the future.
