The Senate voted 65-31 in favor of repealing "Don't Ask, Don't Tell," which lifts the ban against gays serving openly in the U.S. military. The House approved the bill earlier last week by a vote of 250-174. It will now go to the President’s desk to be signed into law.
Following the Senate’s historic vote to repeal the military’s “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy, a group of senators spoke with reporters. Among them were Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) and Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-CT).
