The agency has cleared former NASA chief James Webb of persecuting LGBTQ+ staffers.
statement
Opponents of the observatory's name have argued that Webb was complicit in the Lavender Scare during both appointments. The investigation seems to have interrogated Webb's record more narrowly."The central purpose of this investigation was to locate any evidence that could indicate whether James Webb acted as a leader of or proponent for firing LGBTQ+ employees from the federal workforce," the executive summary begins.
"Because of this, it is a sound conjecture that Webb played little role in the matter, from either an administrative or philosophical perspective, beyond the June 28, 1950, meeting with Senator Hoey," the report states, adding that the investigation didn't find any documents that tied Webb to the committee.
Both men were arrested and brought in for questioning; Norton denied making advances on the other man. But the head of the Moral Squad called the NASA Security Chief, who questioned Norton again separately and fired him. Norton later sued for wrongful termination; the court found in his favor in 1969, after Webb had left the agency.
