Transgender service members relieved after judge blocks Trump's military ban
Briefly

A U.S. District Judge has issued a preliminary injunction against the Trump administration's transgender military ban, deeming it discriminatory and unfounded. The ruling serves as a significant support for transgender service members, affirming their right to serve openly and highlighting their contributions to the military. At a press conference following the ruling, Major Erica Vandal expressed relief and gratitude, emphasizing the professionalism and readiness of transgender personnel. This decision is crucial for the future of thousands of service members and those wanting to enlist.
This ruling clearly recognizes that transgender soldiers, sailors, airmen, and Marines have been serving openly as our authentic selves for nearly a decade in every capacity.
The injunction brought a sigh of relief. It's a massive burden lifted knowing that I will be able to continue to provide for my wife and two children.
