Senate Rules Committee

The longest-serving senator in U.S. history is transitioning away from his role in GOP leadership.

Rules Committee has approved a resolution allowing the Senate to vote on bypassing Sen. Tommy Tuberville’s block on mass nonpolitical military promotions.

Behind Sen. Tuberville’s military holds over the Pentagon’s abortion policy, and how it has sparked a countermove to alter Senators’ individual authority.

A long-standing tradition that enables one senator to stop a ‘unanimous consent’ action by the Senate could soon be coming to an end.
