Tuberville opponents plant hundreds of signs outside U.S. Capitol in protest of blockade
Description
More than 300 signs bearing names, ranks and photos of each military nomination stalled by Sen. Tommy Tuberville’s hold dotted the lawn outside the U.S. Senate on Tuesday, Sept. 19, 2023. Tuberville, an Alabama Republican, is refusing to join a unanimous Senate vote to approve the nominees because he disagrees with a Department of Defense abortion policy.
