0:16Now PlayingSenator Tommy Tuberville has lifted his months-long holds on military promotions except for four-star generals and admirals, allowing the Senate to quickly confirm more than 400 senior officers.
Hours after Tuberville, an Alabama Republican, lifted his blockade, Majority Leader Chuck Schumer brought up military promotions for confirmation under unanimous consent, the traditional way the Senate handles these nominations.
“I am proud to congratulate 425 military officers who were just promoted in the Senate,” Armed Services Committee Chairman Jack Reed, a Rhode Island Democrat, said on the social media platform X. “There are more promotions to approve, but all Americans are safer today,” he added.
