We’ve got to talk about Sen. Tuberville (R-AL).
“Sen. Tommy Tuberville doubles down after blocking hundreds of military promotions: 'I don't care if they promote anybody'”
— Business Insider, August 18, 2023
Sen. Tommy Tuberville, who has single handedly blocked hundreds of military promotions in protest over the Pentagon's abortion policies, said he's not going to change his mind and doesn't care that people aren't being promoted.

The Alabama senator, who spent 14 years on the sidelines of a football field and 0 years as a member of our military, has boasted that “nobody is more military than him” — all while he blocks critical promotions across our armed services.
Team — Sen. Tuberville’s political stunt is putting our nation’s security in danger. Will you sign on right now and DEMAND that Senator Tuberville stop using our service members as political pawns?
For the first time in over a century, the Marine Corps, the Army, and the Navy are all left without a confirmed leader. This has created a readiness issue, causing weeks of delays that leave our nation's security in jeopardy.
As a Marine, I served alongside some of the strongest women that I’ve ever known, and every person deserves the freedom to make the best healthcare decisions for themselves. Ensuring that every service member has access to the healthcare they need is essential to making sure that our military is ready and prepared for whenever they’re called to serve.
Politicians have no right to tell women in the military what they can and cannot do with their bodies.
Will you sign on right now and demand that Sen. Tuberville stops playing these partisan political games?
Thanks, friend —
Rep. Ruben Gallego (AZ-3)
