From the article:

“Hunter said he’s eyeing legislation to try to address women in combat, but wasn’t sure yet what that would entail.

House Armed Services Chairman Mac Thornberry (R-Texas) and Senate Armed Services Chairman John McCain (R-Ariz.) have said they want to hold hearings on the issue, but neither has suggested they’ll try to block the changes.

Hunter said that many congressional colleagues — Republicans and Democrats alike — were avoiding the issue. “Other members of Congress don’t want to talk about this,” he said.”

Most of the Republicans are scared to death of any issue they view as playing into the Democrats slur of “Republican war on women”. They have surrendered this fight to an anti-military, anti-American cabal, and America will suffer greatly in the degradation of its ability to defend itself.

Maybe McCain could volunteer his fat mouthy daughter to be the first volunteer. She's more than equal to the task. She spews enough hate and venom to make most enemies run for cover.
