Republican senator's blockade of military promotions over abortion policy draws bipartisan criticism

Sen. Tommy Tuberville is single-handedly blocking hundreds of military promotions over objections to the Defense Dept. policy on abortion access for service members.
Tuberville's actions have left the Marine Corps without a confirmed commandant for the first time in over a century.
President Biden and other Democrats have accused Tuberville of jeopardizing national security and harming military readiness.
The White House says Republicans are enabling Tuberville's "irresponsible" protest.
Tuberville remains steadfast despite bipartisan calls to stop stalling critical military nominations.
