Warren wants to 'turn up the heat' on Tuberville's military promotion block

Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren is getting fed up with Sen. Tommy Tuberville and his dangerous political games. The Massachusetts Democrat is urging her colleagues to turn the heat up on Tuberville as well as his fellow Republicans who are enabling his destructive quest to change Pentagon abortion policy by blocking hundreds of pending military promotions and nominations.

As chair of the subcommittee for personnel on the Armed Services Committee, Warren has a better idea than just about any other senator about the damage being done by the Alabama senator’s blockade on more than 300 military promotions and appointments. She is putting pressure on her own leadership and fellow Democrats to fight Tuberville’s block more forcefully.
