Pentagon Reaches Historic Settlement with 35,000 LGBTQ+ Veterans for Honorable Discharges
Jan 6, 2025, 09:13 PM
The Pentagon has reached a historic settlement with over 35,000 LGBTQ+ veterans who were dismissed or denied benefits due to their sexual orientation. If approved by a federal judge, the agreement will enable the military to assist these veterans in seeking honorable discharges. The settlement is part of an overhaul of the discharge process for LGBTQ veterans, which was necessitated by the military's former 'don't ask, don't tell' policy. This legal agreement was filed in a San Francisco federal court and could potentially benefit tens of thousands of veterans who were previously barred from serving.
