It accomplished nothing but hurt our military families, weakened our armed forces’ readiness, and compromised our national security amid armed conflict and instability around the world. After nearly a year of obstruction, we have finally approved nearly all of these well-deserved promotions – including Vice Admiral Yvette Davids’ confirmation as Naval Academy Superintendent – finally making good on our promise to the hundreds of men and women in our armed services who have been waiting for this day.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T01:14:16Z |
