The U.S. Department of Defense has agreed to overhaul its process for LGBTQ veterans to seek honorable discharges after they were barred from serving because of their sexual orientation, according to a filing in San Francisco federal court on Monday.

The Pentagon said it will restore the discharge records of 35,000 veterans to “honorable,” ending a class action suit filed more than a year ago by veterans outed under the military’s “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policies.

The U.S. Department of Defense is considering granting honorable discharges to gay and bisexual veterans affected by past military policies. This move follows a settlement in a class action lawsuit addressing the constitutional rights violations of these service members.
