Martin O'Malley vows to clear military records of those discharged for being gay
Democratic presidential underdog Martin O’Malley will lay out his plan for veterans on Monday, the latest attempt by the former Maryland governor to boost his chances by emphasizing his policy bona fides.
O’Malley outlined plans to clear the service records of members of the US military who had been discharged for being gay, make it easier for veterans to get occupational licenses as well as to improve the Department of Veterans Affairs’ health system through technocratic computer programs that he pioneered in Maryland.
The former governor, who has emphasized his executive experience, also used the rollout to tout his accomplishments in the Old Line State, including signing legislation to give military families in-state tuition at Maryland public colleges and allowing veterans to get college credit for their service in the armed forces.
