    In December 2022, Tuberville pledged to block all senior military and civilian Department of Defense nominations over a new Pentagon policy that covers the travel costs of service members seeking abortions in states outside of where they are stationed if they are based in a state that bans the procedure.

    Hurting the military because they don’t hurt women enough. Typical Southern Republican.

      Woman stationed in Texas here. Tuberville freaks me tf out. Fortunately I’m nearly at the end of a good reproductive age, but I’m extremely worried for any younger women who join the military if the DoD ever capitulates to his fascist ass.
