The Unites States is without confirmed chiefs for three of its military services.
Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin called the situation "unprecedented," blaming it on Republican Sen. Tommy Tuberville's hold on high-level military promotions.
A chain-of-command display in the E Ring of the Pentagon has black slates in place of photos for the leaders of the Army, Marine Corps, and now, Navy. The positions are being filled on an acting basis. Schumer has rejected this option, not wanting to cave to what he characterizes as a politicization of the military nomination process.
"If you are a service member stationed in a state that has rolled back or restricted health care access, you are often stationed there because you were assigned there, it is not that you chose to go there. And so a service member in Alabama deserves to have the same access to health care as a service member in California, as a service member stationed in Korea. And so that's what that policy does," Singh said during a briefing Tuesday.
