To celebrate the full repeal of “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell,” Congressman Jim Himes (CT-4) will hold a rally with LGBT constituents, organizations, and allies on Saturday, September 24. Participants will highlight the important progress this occasion marks and discuss the work remaining to ensure members of the LGBT community are treated fairly under the law, with all the dignity and respect they deserve. The event is open to the public.
“At long last, the United States has abolished the institutionalized bigotry of ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell,’” Himes said. “Today we thank the many LGBT men and women who bravely serve our country and look forward to a more secure nation, a stronger military, and an environment that treats all soldiers with the same respect and dignity they deserve.”
