Republican Senator Tommy Tuberville's holds have led to the departure of key Pentagon policy officials, creating a policy gap. The resolution was initiated by Republican members of the Armed Services Committee and Democrats to bypass Tuberville's holds without changing Senate rules. The departure comes amid Middle East tensions and a space policy controversy involving a senior American military officer.
