Press Release: Duckworth Joins Warren and Colleagues in Requesting Air Force Details on Funding for Qatari Jet Retrofit

None

Senators Duckworth and Warren request Air Force details on potential misuse of nuclear funds for Qatari jet retrofitting.

Quiver AI Summary

U.S. Senator Tammy Duckworth, alongside Senators Elizabeth Warren, Ed Markey, and Adam Schiff, has requested details from Air Force Secretary Troy Meink regarding the use of funds from the Sentinel nuclear program for retrofitting a luxury jet from Qatar intended for President Trump. They raised concerns about potential violations of the emoluments clause of the Constitution.

In a letter, the Senators expressed worries that taxpayer dollars may be diverted to modify the Qatari jet, which reportedly needs over $1 billion in retrofits. They emphasized the need for transparency about this funding, particularly as the Sentinel program is already facing budget overruns and delays.

Duckworth and her colleagues are seeking answers by August 20, 2025, to ensure that Air Force funds are being managed properly and not used for what they describe as a "personal gift" that could compromise national security priorities.
