A bipartisan group of lawmakers from both houses of Congress sent a letter to the Department of Defense (DoD) requesting that it address poor living conditions at military bases.

The July 9 letter to Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin was signed by three senators and three members of the House of Representatives. The lawmakers cited a recent investigation by the Project on Government Oversight, which indicated that many families who live in private housing on and off base are exposed to unsafe conditions.
