NEW YORK–(ENEWSPF)–November 11, 2010. The American Civil Liberties Union and the ACLU of New Mexico filed a class action lawsuit yesterday challenging the Defense Department’s discriminatory policy of cutting in half the separation pay of service members who have been honorably discharged for being gay. The separation pay policy is not part of the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” statute, and can be changed without congressional approval.
