Jack, sign the petition: Demand that Tommy Tuberville stop endangering national security over abortion policy.

SIGN THE PETITION

In the wake of the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe, the Pentagon, recognizing the challenges faced by service members in accessing reproductive health care, introduced policies to support them.

In response, Republican Senator Tommy Tuberville has chosen to prioritize his personal beliefs over the nation's security. Since February, he has stalled all high-level military promotions, demanding a reversal of these Pentagon policies.

This isn't just about promotions. It's about national security. The Senate's traditional practice of confirming noncontroversial military nominees, including the Joint Chiefs, via unanimous consent, is now jeopardized. Tuberville's blockade means the Senate must divert valuable time from crucial tasks like passing budgets and supporting American families.

The ramifications are already evident. For the first time in over 150 years, the U.S. Marine Corps has no confirmed leader. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin has voiced concerns, stating that this "unprecedented, across-the-board hold" undermines military readiness and national security.

Senator Tuberville's behavior is dangerous, and his constituents agree. A recent poll revealed that 58% of Alabama voters want Senator Tuberville to end his blockade.

We cannot allow personal agendas to jeopardize our national security. The military's policies were introduced to ensure the well-being of service members. It's time for Senator Tuberville to recognize the broader implications of his actions and prioritize the nation's security.
