Donna Shalala on Homeland Security

	Donna Shalala on Homeland Security

Lobbied the Pentagon to end military LGBT ban in 1991

In 1991 Shalala personally lobbied the Pentagon to end the military ban on homosexuals, and joined a lawsuit for that purpose. In 1992 she commended gay and lesbian students for requesting their own university housing, while ruling it out as unconstitutional. In 1992 she helped found a new national abortion rights committee. All those positions are within bounds of permissible behavior, and even Republicans would not try to deny Clinton the Cabinet he wants.
