Senator Tommy Tuberville to Release Hold on Military Nominations | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

The Pentagon's abortion travel policy remains in effect, after Senator Tommy Tuberville released his holds on more than 400 military promotions. However, Republicans say that doesn't mean the fight is over. Senator Tommy Tuberville told Republican colleagues this week that he was releasing his holds. Otherwise, the Democrat Lead Senate would have voted to change the rules and allow the nominations to be approved. Senator Tuberville says, "You can be pro-life and you can be for the military. You don't need to take sides on that. For some reason, we had some Republicans that did that. The Democrats could care less about the unborn, and they could care less about our military. Chuck Schumer could have solved this problem in a matter of days when we first put this hold in place. I never talked to him. I talked a couple of minutes to the Pentagon. And I never talked to the President." Senator Tuberville also says opposition became personal even from fellow Republican senators.
