Senator Tommy Tuberville's stance on the Pentagon's abortion travel policy has caused a rift among his colleagues, leading to increased isolation. Efforts to end Tuberville's blockade include online petitions from military spouses, and a resolution to break his hold on military nominees is set to be moved by a Senate panel. The situation has prompted military families to try new strategies, such as flying in retired generals to DC, as the normal playbook has proven ineffective. Tuberville's actions have also been discussed in various news outlets and have drawn attention from Senate Armed Services Chair Jack Reed ahead of the government shutdown deadline.
