There's some good news for a change. Unfortunately it's tempered by some bad news. Let's start with the good news. The Senate has passed some legislation to right a wrong. The wrong was Senator (who should have remained a football...
Democrats should go on offense and introduce legislation providing back pay to officers whose promotions were held up due to Alabama Senator Tommy Tuberville's stunt. He could have gotten away with it if his fellow GOPers had stepped up...
