Tuberville Looking for 'Off-Ramp' on Pentagon Holds.

Lawmakers are hopeful that the standoff over Sen. Tommy Tuberville's holds on Pentagon promotions is nearing an end. Tuberville opposes the Pentagon's abortion policy, which allows servicewomen in states with restricted abortion access to take time off and be reimbursed for travel expenses for the procedure. Senators from both parties have expressed frustration with Tuberville's tactic, as it has left many positions unfilled and threatens military readiness. However, Tuberville has indicated that he is willing to find a solution, and Senate Republicans are eager to resolve the issue before Majority Leader Chuck Schumer brings a resolution to the floor. Various alternatives, such as a lawsuit against the Pentagon or rolling back funding for the abortion policy, have been discussed as potential solutions. [Extracted from the article]
