Air Force veteran Ashli Babbitt had her military honors restored by the Trump Administration after having them denied in 2021 following her shooting death by Capitol Hill police officer, Michael Byrd.
Micki Witthoeft, Ashli’s mother, broke the news this past weekend at the First Amendment Film Festival in Texas.

On Monday evening The Gateway Pundit spoke with Micki Witthoeft about this wonderful news.
Micki told us she wanted to thank the many supporters for their hard work to make this happen.
Micki especially wanted to thank Attorney Robert Sticht for his exceptional work in making this happen.
“This was a huge win for Ashli and our family,” added Micki.
Ashli’s mother, Micki, moved to Washington DC after her daughter’s death and led the efforts for many years to support the Jan. 6 political prisoners locked up at the DC Gulag. She held a nightly vigil outside the prison to show the men and women they were not forgotten.
