Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth has issued an ultimatum to transgender service members, preparing to enforce a policy that demands voluntary resignations by June 2025. This directive follows a controversial speech where he disparaged trans individuals in the military. Hegseth referenced previous executive orders aimed at barring trans service members and emphasized the seriousness of enforcing this directive, indicating that those who refuse to resign will face involuntary separation processes. The official timeline has been established for Active and Reserve Component service members to navigate this separation.
