Sen. Tammy Baldwin and Sen. Tim Kaine introduced a resolution apologizing for mistreatment of LGBTQ+ people in the military, Foreign Service, and civil service, highlighting the 'Lavender Scare' and 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell' era.
The resolution aims to recognize and address the discrimination faced by LGBTQ+ federal employees from the 1940s to the 1990s, including purges during the Red Scare and the dishonorable discharge of service members under 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell.'
