For Democrats, Taxpayer Funding of Abortion More Important than Military Readiness
Eagle Forum Applauds Senator Tuberville as Hero of the Republic
Eagle Forum President Kris Ullman released the following statement in response to Senator Tuberville’s decision to allow the Senate to move military promotions by unanimous consent:
Senator Tuberville for the last 10 months has been a hero and a champion not only for life, but for the integrity and authority of the United States Senate. He demanded, in the face of the Defense Secretary’s unilateral changing of federal law, that the Senate call up, debate, and hold a vote on each military nomination submitted by the Biden Administration. Instead of undertaking a bit more work and inconveniencing Senators to get the nominations approved, Majority Leader Charles Schumer (D-NY) decided to inconvenience the military by spending less than ten days a month on average in session this year. And on the rare days that the Senate was in session, Sen. Schumer only allowed the Senate to vote on three military nominations. But the actions by Sen. Schumer should show the world who exactly is responsible for the delays.
Sadly, the Democrat majority in the Senate was willing to decimate the rights of the minority by changing the standing rules to bypass Senator Tuberville’s objections. They were unwilling to stand up for their constitutional duties to make the laws and to give advice and consent – all to placate their radical pro-abortion base. In the face of grave harm to the institutional rules, Senator Tuberville has decided to let the nominations move forward by unanimous consent.
Hopefully, history will record this period as one in which one strong Senator stood up for the rights of Congress to make law, of taxpayers to not pay for abortion services, and of the Senate to debate and vote on nominations. For these reasons, Eagle Forum is pleased to call him a Hero of the Republic.
