A group of four Democratic and Republican U.S. Senators is renewing calls for the U.S. Department of Defense to investigate claims private military contractors are ripping off the department with unreasonably high invoices for parts and services.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), working with fellow Sens. John Fetterman (D-Pa.), Mike Braun (R-Ind.), and Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), sent a letter to Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin on May 28 urging his department to continue pursuing investigations into allegations that the U.S. military’s private partners have engaged in price gouging.
