A Message from Mitch Stewart Regarding Don't Ask Don't Tell
Friend --
From Day One, President Obama has said that the question wasn't if, but when, "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" would be repealed.
Now we know the answer.
This morning, the President signed repeal into law -- setting into motion an end to this discriminatory policy that weakened our military and forced some brave men and women to lie about who they are.
It was a moment for the history books -- possible only because the President wasn't alone in his determination to get this done before the end of the year.
Today is possible because of people like you.
It's possible because of people like Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi -- and each and every lawmaker who kept pushing for repeal, even after falling short in vote after vote.
As they wrap up two historic years of work, let's show them how proud we are to be on their team on a day like today.
If you haven't already, please sign OFA's note of thanks before it's delivered:
