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

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

The Senate on Tuesday confirmed 425 military nominees after a nearly 10-month hold over Department of Defense nominations in the upper chamber, NBC News reported. The confirmation came after Sen. Tommy Tuberville, R-Ala., decided to lift his hold on the majority of military promotions, particularly on nominees at three-star rank.
