The Senate on Saturday approved, by unanimous consent, all nominations for military promotions on the Secretary's desk for the Air Force, Army, Marine Corps, and Navy.
According to the Senate Record, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., asked for the unanimous consent motion "with no intervening action or debate, that no further motions be in order to any of the nominations," and that President Joe Biden be "immediately notified of the Senate's actions."The move sidestepped a months'-long block from Sen. Tommy Tuberville, R-Ala., over the Defense Department's abortion-access policies.
"They have not been told no for three years since Biden's taken office and [Majority Leader Chuck] Schumer has been the leader," Tuberville said of Senate Democrats. "But that being said, they got to learn how to take no, because I've not changed my mind."
