Krishnamoorthi Demands Investigation Into Trump National Security Adviser Waltz’s Exposure Of Sensitive Information Over Signal

SCHAUMBURG, IL - Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi, a senior member of the House Intelligence Committee, issued the following statement today in response to new revelationsregarding National Security Adviser Mike Waltz's extensive use of the insecure Signal messaging app for official government communications related to international crises:

"The latest revelations that Mike Waltz and his team routinely used the Signal app for discussing sensitive national security matters are deeply troubling and must be fully investigated to prevent American lives from being needlessly threatened or lost. This confirms what we feared during last week's Signal scandal: the potential security breaches by top Trump Administration officials extend far deeper.

I am calling for a full investigation into whether the extensive use of Signal by senior Trump Administration officials has included the sharing of sensitive and classified information. Signal is an insecure, unauthorized platform to transmit this type of information, and the mishandling of such information endangers our national security, our secrets, and the lives of those who serve our country in uniform."
