WASHINGTON, DC – Congressman August Pfluger (TX-11) today issued the following statement in response to reports that the U.S. Air Force leaked confidential personnel records of Jennifer-Ruth Green, a Veteran and candidate running in Indiana’s 1^st Congressional District:

Rep. August Pfluger (TX-11): “This is an outrage. As an Air Force Academy graduate and former fighter pilot, the leaking of a veteran's personal information by the Air Force for political purposes is particularly egregious and will not be tolerated. We need a government that is accountable to the people. The Air Force must take steps to ensure this situation does not occur again and tell us specifically who was held accountable.”
