Sen. Dan Sullivan (R-AK) “will lead a push to substantiate a slate of navy nominees Wednesday night in a direct problem to fellow GOP Sen. Tommy Tuberville and his blockade on promotions within the armed forces, marking a brand new flip within the monthslong Senate deadlock,” Politico stories.
“Sullivan plans to hunt the short affirmation of a tranche of senior officers by unanimous consent.”
“Sullivan’s intervention is essentially the most vital confrontation to Tuberville up to now throughout the GOP, reflecting that extra Republicans are turning in opposition to Tuberville and able to problem him publicly.”
