Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley and Ranking Member Dick Durbin sent a letter to President Trump, questioning the legality of the recent firings of federal inspectors general. They emphasized the absence of the mandated 30-day notice and necessary detailed explanations for these dismissals, which are required by law. Grassley and Durbin underscored the importance of accountability and public confidence in the inspectors general, who play a crucial role in identifying misconduct and corruption within the executive agencies.
Congress was not provided the legally required 30-day notice and case specific reasons for removal, as required by law.
This is a matter of public and congressional accountability and ensuring the public's confidence in the Inspector General community.
