Wasting Millions
Past policies have done nothing, but waste millions of dollars to investigate adn discharge qualified and patriotic Americans who wish to serve their country, soley based on their sexual orientation
It Has Been Done Before
A stop-loss policy was set in place during the Persian Gulf War which prevented discharges for homosexualy, strongly suggesting that the US military believed that service by openly gay or lesbian people duing wartime was no threat to military effectiveness
Background
Military Success Does Not Depend On Sexual orientation
Gay, lesbian, and bisexual persons were banned from serving in the military until 1993, when the Don't Ask Don't Tell policy was put into effect. In 2011, it became legal for people in the LGBTQ community to openly serve in the military.
America's allies including the United Kingdom, Canada, Israel and Australia allow openly gay, lesbian and bisexual individuals to openly serve and this has no adverse effect on military readiness or discipline.
