In a Monday, September 4 op-ed published by The Washington Post, three service secretaries call on United States Senator Tommy Tuberville (R-Alabama) to end the "dangerous hold" on the confirmation of senior military leaders.
Due to "his personal opposition to the Pentagon's healthcare policies on abortion," the GOP leader is currently holding up hundreds of military promotions.
"We believe that the vast majority of senators and of Americans across the political spectrum recognize the stakes of this moment and the dangers of politicizing our military leaders," Navy secretary Carlos Del Toro, Air Force secretary Frank Kendall, and Army secretary Christine Wormuth write. "It is time to lift this dangerous hold and confirm our senior military leaders."
