Democrats Urge McConnell to Break Tuberville’s Blockade

“A group of Senate Armed Services Democrats is pressing Minority Leader Mitch McConnell to intervene to help end Republican Sen. Tommy Tuberville’s holdup of nearly 300 senior military promotions,” Politico reports.

“The push by eight senators in a letter Monday to McConnell comes as time is running out to resolve the blockade before Congress leaves for its extended summer recess, ensuring more vacancies in top military posts.”
