mr. president, i've stood here as i've listened to senator tuberville say that the world is a more dangerousce, he's spoken about how we have weakened our military. senator tuberville is right on that and one of the principle reasons is because of senator tuberville's own actions. he has held up hundreds of military nominations, hundreds of our military leaders who have not made it to the posts they were assigned to. it is clear that it was a grave mistake for one senator to hold our military promotion system hostage over his personal disagreement with the department of defense policy. we need our commanders in the pacific to deter china and our service vice chiefs to lead the military. i am relieved that he has released most of his holds, but he continues to weaken our military readiness and undermine both recruiting and retention. the senate should not go home for the holidays until we confirm the remaining nominees. this senator has held up nominations for nearly a year. it undermines our national defense and it's unfair to our military and to our military families. he insults our militar
