  5. Today the Pentagon announced that the military is removing the ban on women serving in combat. Statement by Congressman John Delaney:
    "This historic announcement is good for our military and good for our country. The service and sacrifice of hundreds of thousands of servicewomen is being recognized and validated with this decision. As Americans we understand how many women are already among our nation’s true military heroes. Our servicewomen should be allowed the opportunity to be selected to serve in combat. The Pentagon is on the right side of history with this move and the march to further equality is good for us all."
