House Homeland Security Committee chairman calls on Secret Service director to resign

House Homeland Security Chairman Mark Green, R-Tenn., called on Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle to resign on Monday as a result of her agency's handling of security former President Trump's rally in Butler, Pa. where he was shot.

A rally attendee was killed and two others were injured. 

“While the American people are still searching for answers, we have enough to know that Director Cheatle should no longer hold her position," Green said in a statement.

"The Committee has worked in good faith to get answers since July 13th. In response, Director Cheatle refused to testify before our Committee, and DHS has been anything but transparent or forthcoming," he added.

Cheatle has said the Secret Service wasn't able to position counter-snipers in the location of the shooter due to the angle of the roof, which Green called an "absurd, unacceptable, and obviously unfounded excuse."

Cheatle is scheduled to testify before the House Oversight Committee on Monday.
