How did the u. s. military become a target of public social debate in the 1990s? (5 points) it removed all recruitment restrictions leading to concerns about protecting families. it mandated stricter requirements for volunteers with certain characteristics. it instituted a policy in which soldiers were not to discuss their sexual orientation. it ordered each branch to stop recruiting from certain segments of the population.

It instituted a policy in which soldiers were not to discuss their sexual orientation.

Explanation:

The United States military used to reject gay men, bisexuals, and lesbians who wanted to become part of the army. Later in the 90's, a policy known as "Don't ask, don´t tell" was passed by U.S. Congress along with Bill Clinton, which made it possible for these people to become part of the military as long as they didn't talk about or reveal their sexual orientation in any way. This logically contributed to public social debate, and led many gay men, lesbias and bisexual to take legal action, but at first, most of this legal action had no effect at all.
