U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth came under fire from a member of his own party Saturday.

The Hill recently reported that "Hegseth has ordered that Pentagon personnel be required to coordinate all interactions with Congress through the building’s central legislative affairs office, significantly altering how military officials will speak with lawmakers."

Rep. Don Bacon (R-NE), who recently took an apparent dig at President Donald Trump for his “lobbying” efforts toward being awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, took to social media over the weekend to slam Hegseth's move reported by The Hill.

"I was a five-time commander & our leadership WANTED us to engage members of Congress," Bacon wrote. "We wanted to share what our great airmen were doing. We were proud of our service."

Bacon further added, "The new rules have put a large barrier between the military & Congress. Pentagon says the change is very small. But I already see the impact with military members being afraid to communicate. This is another amateur move."
