We are listening to our troops and military leaders. I held two hearings on this policy. DOD is gathering service and family member feedback. Remember, this process was set up to understand how to implement reform, not whether it should happen. That in 10, Madam Chair, is contained in the amendment. Don't Ask, Don't Tell weakens our national security by asking servicemembers to lie, firing them for being gay, and telling able recruits, We don't want you. Please, America can do better. Vote ``yes.''
