Good. Tuberville is a heifer for this nonsense.
Hopefully there are enough sensible Republicans in the Senate to make this happen. Fuck you Tuber!
This is the best summary I could come up with:
WASHINGTON, Nov 14 (Reuters) - A Democratic-led U.S. Senate committee advanced legislation on Tuesday that would clear the way for the quick confirmation of hundreds of military promotions that one Republican senator has been delaying for months to protest Defense Department abortion policy.
Senate Democrats wrote the legislation in response to Senator Tommy Tuberville’s refusal since February to allow quick approval of most promotions of generals, admirals and other high-level military officials to protest the Pentagon’s policy of covering abortion travel costs for service members and dependents.
The resolution would temporarily sidestep Tuberville’s holds by allowing many promotions to be considered by the Senate simultaneously.
Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell, a member of the Rules Committee, said productive discussions with Tuberville about reaching a deal to ease his holds were under way.
However, the Senate’s Democratic majority leader, Chuck Schumer, said he would bring the measure to the floor unless Republicans convinced Tuberville to end his holds.
Last summer, Tuberville’s campaign left the Marine Corps without a commandant for the first time in more than 100 years.
The original article contains 436 words, the summary contains 177 words. Saved 59%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Republican votes are needed, so Tumor will get to continue to wreck the military in the hope that Trump will return to the White House, appoint lackeys to head the military, and start a purge of Americans who aren’t MAGAts.
