The Air Force, Army and Navy secretaries say Tuberville's holds are “putting our national security at risk.”
The secretaries of the Air Force, Army and Navy say Sen. Tommy Tuberville’s hold on military promotions is “exacting a personal toll on those who least deserve it.”Secretary of the Air Force Frank Kendall, Secretary of the Army Christine Wormuth and Secretary of the Navy Carlos Del Toro said Tuberville’s hold is “putting our national security at risk.”
Tuberville began the hold in February over Defense policies that expand abortion access, including reimbursing military members for travel to obtain an abortion if they are serving in an area where the procedure is illegal. The senator says he believes the policies are illegal and can only be made by Congress.“Three of our five military branches — the Army, Navy and Marine Corps — have no Senate-confirmed service chief in place.
The secretaries also blasted Tuberville for suggesting “he is going to further escalate this confrontation by launching baseless political attacks against these men and women.”
