Sen. Tommy Tuberville lifted his monthslong chokehold on the Senate’s military confirmation process, allowing hundreds of promotions to move forward.

Tuberville said he will continue to block the promotion of all senior military positions that are four stars or higher.

Tuberville announced he was dropping his procedural hold on military confirmations on all but those nominated to be four-star generals and admirals.

The Alabama Republican appeared to be eyeing a handful of off-ramps in recent days. But he ultimately gained no concessions for the monthslong holds.

Sen. Tommy Tuberville told reporters Tuesday that he is ending some of his months-long blockade of military promotions.
