Consider This from NPR - Military Families Urge An End To Senator’s Hold On Pentagon Appointments

One Republican senator from Alabama is single-handedly holding up over 300 senior-level military promotions and appointments.

Senator Tommy Tuberville says he's doing it to take a stand against a Defense Department policy that reimburses travel expenses for military personnel who have to leave their states to get an abortion or other reproductive care.

Tonya Murphy is a military spouse who went to Capitol Hill to hand deliver a petition signed by hundreds calling on lawmakers to stop the impasse. She explains how this political standoff is impacting military families.

And NPR Pentagon correspondent Tom Bowman gives us the big picture overview of how all of this is affecting the Pentagon and, potentially, national security.

In participating regions, you'll also hear a local news segment to help you make sense of what's going on in your community.
