John, as a veteran, our national security means so much to me.

That’s why it’s so important that we don’t let politics get in the way of the critical defense of our nation.

I just reached out about my colleague Sen. Tuberville and his opposition to over 250 senior military promotions. It’s silly, but he’s holding up this necessary procedure for his own political gain.

With just hours left to make your voice heard, can you let Sen. Tuberville know that politics can’t get in the way of our top military personnel performing their duties? Our national security is more important than partisan politics.

Thank you,

Chrissy

Subject: Tell Sen. Tuberville: Don’t put politics above national security

John, it’s Chrissy. You know me – I try to see the best in everyone and work hard to lower the temperature of our politics.

That’s been really hard lately as I’ve watched my colleague Sen. Tommy Tuberville single-handedly hold up the promotions in our military because he’s mad at President Biden.

Why is he mad? Because after SCOTUS overturned Roe, President Biden announced the military would provide leave and pay for the travel costs for any woman in uniform needing reproductive care not available in the state where the military stationed her. Sen. Tuberville says he is stopping promotions until this policy is reversed.

Can you sign your name and tell Sen. Tuberville to stop putting politics ahead of national security?

With over 250 promotions stalled and critical positions going vacant – including the Marine Corps’ highest-ranking officer who is also a member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff – Sen. Tuberville is putting our national security at risk. Military leaders are already reporting an impact on retention and recruitment for our all-volunteer military.

My colleagues and I have tried to talk to him, but he won’t budge on this. And so, I’m coming to supporters like you.

Please, can you sign your name and tell Sen. Tuberville to stop putting politics ahead of national security? With new threats every day, we can't afford to keep our best from performing the work they need to do.

It’s critical to our security that we stop this holdup as soon as possible, so I’m counting on your urgent feedback.

There’s work to be done,
Chrissy
