Senate Democrats advance measure to circumvent Tuberville's military holds
Fox News
Democrat-led resolution for 350+ military promotions blocked by Sen. Tuberville heads to full Senate vote, but bipartisan support is needed to codify the rules change.
"What Sen. Tuberville has done is truly an anomaly that does much harm and requires a response," Schumer said before the vote on Tuesday. "There's been a lot of negativity and dysfunction in the Senate these days, but Sen. Tuberville has single-handedly brought the Senate to a new low for months."

Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., chairwoman of the committee, said military families – a handful were present at the markup – have been suffering due to the holds, leaving positions vacant.
