Here are some links to coverage of the Congressional hearings held this past week regarding Don’t ask, Don’t tell:
Dallas (TX) Voice: “Local Gay Vet Reacts to Hearing on DADT”
(NOTE: The local gay vet would be yours truly, but also includes quotes from Jesse Garcia, president of LULAC 4871 and the local chapter of Stonewall Democrats, who joined me in July to visit Congressional offices and talk about MREA.)
Washington (DC) Blade: “House Committee Hosts Hearing on Don’t ask”
Army Times: “Congress Debates Don’t ask”
The Hill (Washington, DC): “Lawmakers Grill Critic of Gays in Military”
National Public Radio (NPR): “Congress Revisits Military’s Policy on Gays”
CBS News: “Congress Heatedly Debates Gays in Military”
Fort Worth (TX) Star-Telegram: “Vigorous Debate Held on Don’t ask, Don’t tell”
This is just a sampling of the coverage the hearings have received. Of course, several more newspapers repeated the feeds they received from the Associated Press and UPI. I encourage you to visit some of these links and, in addition to the stories themselves, read the comments from readers. Sometimes they are just as interesting.
