A coalition led by New York Attorney General Letitia James filed a legal brief contesting President Trump's executive order banning transgender individuals from serving in the U.S. military. This order requires the discharge of current transgender service members and prohibits new recruits based on gender identity. The coalition argues that the ban is unconstitutional, undermines national security, and discriminates against transgender people in the military. The brief seeks to provide support for service members challenging the ban, highlighting the commitment and contributions of transgender individuals to the armed forces.
All service members deserve our utmost gratitude for their bravery and sacrifice. We should be honoring their commitment, not degrading it with exclusionary policies.
This ban cruelly targets the transgender Americans who have dedicated their lives to protecting our freedoms. I want transgender service members and veterans to know that we see you, we respect you, and we will always fight for you.
