Reps Speier & Braley Request Meeting with Defense Secretary to Discuss Aviano Air Base Scandal

From Protect Our Defenders Honorary Chair Representative Jackie Speier’s press release:

“The fact that one person in the military can unilaterally overturn a punishment determined by a judge or jury, for any or no reason, flies in the face of justice,” said Speier. “Our brave service members deserve more than a judicial system that treats them like second class citizens. I look forward to meeting with Secretary Hagel to discuss a meaningful solution that will right this wrong.”
