House Speaker Mike Johnson has—gasp!—compromised again. The latest version of the $886 billion National Defense Authorization Act, unveiled late Wednesday, does not include Republican measures to block the Pentagon’s abortion travel policy and its policy of providing transition care for transgender troops.
Far-right Republicans did get to keep assorted poison-pill provisions on race, including a ban on critical race theory in the military and moves against diversity, equity, and inclusion staffing and programs in the military. But the compromise there is noteworthy, especially following the collapse of Sen. Tommy Tuberville’s blockade on military promotions to protest the abortion travel policy.
They better pray harder. It's only going to get worse for them in the future.
