President Joe Biden is set to pardon approximately 2,000 US veterans convicted under a military law banning gay sex. The pardon applies to those convicted between 1951 and 2013 under Article 125 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice, which criminalized sodomy. While the pardons won't alter records, they allow veterans to apply for a certificate of pardon, aiding in the restoration of withheld benefits. Those convicted of non-consensual acts, such as rape, will not be considered under this. #Queer Up Social Justice
