Oklahoma Bill Aims to Reinstitute Homophobia and Discrimination in State National Guard

Washington, D.C.-(ENEWSPF)- The Human Rights Campaign, The Equality Network, and the American Civil Liberties Union of Oklahoma are condemning discriminatory legislation in the Oklahoma House of Representatives. HB 2195, sponsored by Rep. Mike Reynolds (R-Oklahoma City) would implement an even more extreme version of the now-repealed “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” anti-gay policy on the state’s National Guard and jeopardize nearly $295 million in federal funding. The bill is scheduled for a vote before the House Veterans and Military Affairs Committee this Monday.
