Liz Cheney, daughter of former vice president Dick Cheney, said in an interview Thursday that it is time for the military to end the "don't ask, don't tell" policy.
Cheney, often considered a potential political candidate, spoke with the D.C. bureau of Talking Points Memo at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington.
"It's time for it to end," said Cheney, according to Talking Points Memo. "The Joint Chiefs, certainly the chairman of the Joint Chiefs, has been clear about that. and I think that the country really is at a place now where it's time for it to end."
Earlier this week, the former vice president and Defense secretary Cheney told ABC News that he supported DADT repeal. His other daughter, Mary, is a lesbian and has one child, and another expected, with her partner, Heather Poe.
