Larsen Denounces Republicans Protecting Hegseth from Impeachment Vote

Washington, D.C., November 10, 2026

Today, Representative Rick Larsen (WA-02) released the following statement:

“I support impeaching Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth for his incompetent leadership of the Pentagon. Instead of allowing a yes or no vote on impeachment, House Republicans today blocked the resolution from moving forward and continue to turn a blind eye to Hegseth’s failures. I will keep working to hold him accountable. This is not over.”

Today, the House of Representatives voted 211 to 204 to block consideration of impeaching Secretary Hegseth. In March 2025, Rep. Larsen called for the Secretary to resign or be fired immediately.
