Madam Speaker, I just returned from the signing of the\nrepeal of Don't Ask, Don't Tell. The President spoke wisely and\nstrongly and welcomed those who were discharged under the Don't Ask,\nDon't Tell policy to consider reenlisting.\n  President Obama said:\n  ``There will never be a full accounting of the heroism demonstrated\nby gay Americans in service to this country.'' He continued, ``As the\nfirst generation to serve openly in our armed services, you will stand\nfor all those who came before you, and you will serve as role models\nfor all those who come after you.''\n  Madam Speaker, today is an important day, not just for gay and\nlesbian members of the military, but to all of us who are gay or\nlesbian, to our families, to our friends, for they all know that today\nwe hold our heads a little higher as Americans. We are closer to equal\ntreatment under the law, which is all we've ever asked for.\n  Our government will no longer be an instrument of discrimination\nagainst us, and all America will see and be told of the patriotism of\nthe gay and lesbian Americans who proudly defend a country that today\nis one step closer to considering us equal.\n\n                          ____________________"]], "columns": ["granule_id", "date", "congress", "session", "volume", "issue", "title", "chamber", "granule_class", "sub_granule_class", "page_start", "page_end", "speakers", "bills", "citation", "full_text"], "primary_keys": ["granule_id"], "primary_key_values": ["CREC-2010-12-22-pt1-PgH8944"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.9095069253817201, "source": "Federal Register API & Regulations.gov API", "source_url": "https://www.federalregister.gov/developers/api/v1", "license": "Public Domain (U.S. Government data)", "license_url": "https://www.regulations.gov/faq"}
