The Senate easily confirmed President Joe Biden’s picks to be the top officers in the Navy and Air Force on Thursday as frustration with Sen. Tommy Tuberville’s blockade of senior military promotions mounts.
The votes were 95-1 to approve both Adm. Lisa Franchetti as chief of naval operations and Gen. David Allvin as Air Force chief of staff. Republican Sen. Roger Marshall of Kansas was the lone senator to oppose both confirmations. Franchetti’s confirmation makes her the first female member of the Joint Chiefs.
